Consultant needed to Convert SCO-Unix to a VM
Hi There,
we have made a byte-by-byte image with linux and dd of the harddisks of an SCO Open Server. When booting this image in vmware or kvm it starts booting SCO but then the system cannot recognize the expected Adaptec SCSI Driver.
We need an SCO expert who can boot an SCO Openserver CD (we have one) and add drivers for disk and network from there to the Installation.
The target of the project is that these images are running under vmware like they did before on a physical Hardware.
There are 2 Disk Images, each has 4 Gigabyte in size but they can be compressed.
Is anybody out here interested in doing this work ?

NAME
vmware2libvirt - vmware vmx to libvirt xml converter
SYNOPSIS
vmware2libvirt [-q] -f FILE
DESCRIPTION
This program outputs a libvirt xml file based on an existing vmware vmx file
OPTIONS
--version
show program's version number and exit
-h, --help
show this help message and exit
-q, --qemu
use qemu instead of kvm
-f FILE, --file=FILE
vmware vmx file to convert
USAGE
To start using a pre-existing vmware image with libvirt, you simply copy the vmware .vmx file and .vmdk file to a new directory. Then do:
vmware2libvirt -f ./file.vmx > file.xml
virsh -c qemu:///system define file.xml
At this point, your vmware image should be available to libvirt.
CAVEATS
vmware2libvirt currently will use the first scsi disk if found, otherwise the first ide disk. It will also use the first ethernet interface
found.
