[Zeffie-Users] Qube2 restoration

[Franklin S Werren]

Hi There;
I have a Qube 2 .... But I used the Raq 2 OS myself.....
I suppect that you do not have a compatible
Network Card.... Especially the older CD restores
were very picky on Network Cards... There is a list
on the CD of compatible cards... I keep one myself for
when I need to do a restore.... and it should only take 15 mins
or so (disk size dependent) if it is restoring,
the LCD will show what it is doing.

My 2 cents: Never get caught between an ISP and a telco in a pissing match!!
                   The customer looses every time!!!
