I haven't tried installation on a RaQ, but at least Qube3 was
relatively straightforward. I've included quick installation
instructions to this email.

The instructions suggest upgrading PHP on the system, as Qube3
carries a version previous to 4.0.6 required by Midgard 1.4.2

-----------
Installing Midgard 1.4.2 on Cobalt Qube3

NOTE: These instructions advise upgrading the PHP programming language
to a version not supplied by Cobalt. PHP is used as a critical
compontent in Qube's administration, and so this might cause
problems. Do this upgrade at your own risk. Be sure to have the
recovery CDs close at hand.

Quick installation process

Login to Qube3 as admin user. The default service for this
is telnet.

Change user to root:

$ su -
Password: admin passwd
