Operating Systems SCO Consultant needed to Convert SCO-Unix to a VM Post 302586822 by adoII on Tuesday 3rd of January 2012 10:45:05 AM

Yes, I know.

So I need some SCO Freak to generate some boot cd and to enter some boot btld bla ... stuff on the boot prompt to bring the system up. Afterwards I think there is some mkdev hd magic and same ./link_unix stuff to be done.

Maybe we can use ide or lsi emulation or something else. I dont care if the resulting image is vmware or kvm/qemu

I have done this many times 15 years ago but I forgot all this magic.

We are willing to spend some 100 bucks if anybody is willing to get this running for us.

Your problem is going to be the Adaptec SCSI Driver. As far as I am aware, VirtualBox does not support any SCO Adaptec SCSI drivers or any of other SCO SCSI drivers.

NAME
ahb -- Adaptec EISA SCSI host adapter driver SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device scbus device ahb Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): ahb_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
This driver provides access to the SCSI bus connected to an Adaptec AHA-174X host adapters in ``enhanced'' mode. Tagged queueing and syn- chronous SCSI transfers are supported. HARDWARE
The ahb driver supports the following SCSI host adapters: o Adaptec AHA-1740 o Adaptec AHA-1742 o Adaptec AHA-1740A o Adaptec AHA-1742A CAVEATS
The Adaptec 174X is very sensitive to SCSI bus termination and cable length. It may also have difficulties operating with some modern devices that, due to their speed, expose timing problems in the controller. There are no known mechanisms for working around device incom- patibilities of this nature. SEE ALSO
