Hi- I've recently acquired a Cobalt Qube2. After about 8 hours of monkeying around with it the last couple days, I have successfully got 2.4.24 up and running, I started with trying to get 2.6 on it, that was a huge mess. I'm also using Debian sarge distro. 2.4.24 has a few #define's that are missing and a couple other small hangups during my cross compile. So far so good. I haven't had a chance to stress test it yet. Hopefully I can have more details about stability in a few days, as well as a quick log of the changes that are needed in the 2.4.24 source. I'm not sure what i'm gonna do with it yet, maybe set it as my new router or do Web or Qmail. I have the Debian package for the kernel upgrade, if anyone is interested. You'll need to compress and move the kernel and map file to the appropriate names in the /boot dir.
