Ocean Park Files its October Bill - It's 13th So Far in SCO Bankruptcy - Plus Aug. 23rd Hearing Tran

Ocean Park Advisors has now filed its bill for October in the SCO bankruptcy, its 13th bill. If you are sick of this case, imagine how they feel. All their advice and here's SCO, still stuck in the bankruptcy mud. Indeed one sees signs of OPA looking for an exit. In Exhibit A [PDF], on page 5 we find notations like these:
  • "Work with OPA team on financial analysis and wind-down scenarios for SCO"
  • "Preparation of initial financial plan for case resolution. Research of various documents and consultation with legal counsel to Ch. 11 Trustee" "Review and formulate sources & uses analysis for case closure"

Meanwhile, there is another monthly bill for SCO to pay, ha ha, for $10,611 plus expenses, all in the pretense that SCO is restructuring and will emerge from Chapter 11 to fight another day. And who can say nay, given that Novell has agreed to merge with AttachMate, thanks to a payment by a Microsoft-organized consortium for some patents to sweeten the deal? Stay tuned. That's my advice. It's the saga that never ends.

mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem SYNOPSIS
mkfs.bfs [options] device [block-count] DESCRIPTION
mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device). The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used. OPTIONS
-N, --inodes number Specify the desired number of inodes (at most 512). If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked depending on the size of the partition. -V, --vname label Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used. -F, --fname name Specify the filesystem name. I have no idea if/where this is used. -v, --verbose Explain what is being done. -c This option is silently ignored. -l This option is silently ignored. -h, --help Display help text and exit. -V, --version Display version information and exit. Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option. EXIT CODES
The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong. SEE ALSO
