I have a Cobalt Qube 3 [1] which I have no use for. It is in working condition and has Debian installed on it.
I have used it as my home server in the past.
It cannot be updated any further due to the specialised kernel; that is, unless someone hacks something that is usable, something which is beyond me.
On this forum: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/install-bsd-on-a-qube-3.23363/ I see mention that "the BIOS source is available under GPL", here: ftp://open.cobaltqube.org/pub/oss/1.4/CobaltQube3_OSS_1.4.tar.gz Looks like a hassle for BSD, otherwise I'd have loved it with a two or three NIC PCI.
But for experimentation, it is fine.
If anyone is interested in taking it, please contact me off-list.
Thanks,
