I've got a CacheRaQ 2 running NetBSD 1.6.2 and a Qube 2700 that I
would like to do the same (both from the same eBay auction).
However, when I try to power on the Qube 2700, all I get is a blinking
cursor on the LCD.  I swear I can hear hard-drive-like noises in there
in addition to the fan.
Does anyone know what's going on?  I get the feeling that whatever's
going on isn't good......

Thanks,
Michael L. Freeman
