it seems like none of the links work on this page. they probably havent been updated in a while. are there any other sites that have the boot files? like maybe an updated FTP server somewhere?

You may download it from here :
http://www.yamaguchy.netfirms.com/warez/scounix42.zip

Lately my site received visits from here so I add this to the post: this copy of SCOunix_4.2 was sold with a Compaq server. After boot it asks for a number which I do not have (nice IT guy did not throw that in the garbage)

But, enjoy my abandoned ware page:
