Operating Systems SCO PANIC: exit - cannot exec /etc/init (PID 1), status 0*00000200 Post 302826703 by jgt on Thursday 27th of June 2013 06:39:58 AM

The size of the dump exceeds the size of the assigned swap space. You cannot create an emergency boot floppy until you can successfully boot the system
The 0x0000200 error is file not found. So my presumption is that the root file system is corrupted.
Remove the disk, find another disk and install the operating system. Then change the SCSI ID on the old disk to 1 or 3 and re-install the disk and run "mkdev hd" to add the second disk. When running 'divvy' be sure not to change any file system sizes, and do not mark any of the file systems as "new". You will have to name the partitions though. Hopefully you will be able to extract any files that you do not have backed up on removable media.

volunroot(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      volunroot(8)

NAME
volunroot - Remove Logical Storage Manager hooks for rootable volumes SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/volunroot [-a | -A] OPTIONS
Specifies that all volumes on the system disk be converted back to UNIX disk partitions, not just the root and swap volumes, rootvol and swapvol. Forces removal of the private region unless it is the last one in the system. DESCRIPTION
The volunroot script can be used to restore the accessibility of the root, swap, and other file systems on the boot disk directly through disk partitions instead of through volume devices. The script also removes other changes that were made to enable booting of the system from the root volume, so that the system will boot with no dependency on the Logical Storage Manager. When used with no options, volunroot affects only the root and swap volumes, rootvol and swapvol. For volunroot to work properly, only one plex must exist for each of the affected volumes. This plex must be the one created by volrootmir or the original plex created when the root disk was encapsulated. This ensures that the underlying subdisks will have equivalent partitions defined for them on the disk. If these conditions are not met, the volunroot operation fails and none of the volumes are converted to disk partitions. The unwanted plexes can be removed using either voledit or volplex. SEE ALSO
