Hello,

I have an issue with a server running SCO Openserver 5.0.6. I looked at the Technical Articles at SCO Support site, and there I was suggested to look for TA # 105312, "How do I mount boot and root filesystems using the SCO OpenServer 5 Boot Disk?"

But when I search for this TA-number nothing will be found.

Does anyone here have this article or a manual how to mount boot and root using the SCO Boot Disk?

Thanks,
Patrick

TA 105312 does seem to have been withdrawn.

Try typing 'tools' at the boot: prompt; you should move along until you get to an option to get a shell prompt on the ramdisk, at which point you can 'fsck -o /full /dev/hs0root', then ''mount /dev/hd0root /mnt/'.

What were you meaning to do once you got there?

The root filesystem was filled up (no space left). So with this procedure I could enter the harddisk and clean some logfiles and/or useless data to make some free space.

Thanks for your tip! I will try it.
