Nevermind.

So my legacy machine is now humming along great, but I still want to try one more thing to get the VM I've been working on fully operational. The details are in another thread, but since this is my...

Yes, I realized I could change it in the BIOS and now everything is fine, with the exception of the MicroLite BackupEDGE license is showing as invalid but it won't let me remove it. But I have a...

I uninstalled the licenses and then reinstalled. I had kept the Registration Keys from March of 2017, the last time I registered, and they still worked!! And it turns out I had my network cable...

Major Update - I was able to find a brand-new motherboard that is the exact model as the one I had in the old hardware. I spent the morning replacing it and reconnecting everything, and the system...

As far as I remember, the Sdsk (hd) at 0,0,0,0 has never showed up in the mscsi file. There was originally entries for the tape drive and the cd-rom drive, but I have deleted the tape drive and many...

Pics again.


I do not know why my pics don't show up in my posts. They show up everywhere else, and I checked my user settings and the "Images" box is checked. I give up unless someone else can...

Trying to post pics again in different browser.

I went through the /usr/adm/messages file and I am posting a pic of the configuration before this incident, which shows the cd-rom as the secondary master device, which is what I remember. ...

Trying attachment again.


When I preview my post, it shows the image attachment. When I submit the post the image attachment does not appear - what am I doing wrong?

So I have been trying everything I can think of and still not having any success. To recap - something went wrong with my original OpenServer 5.0.6 hardware and the system would not boot, I suspect...

I finally found in BIOS that where the drives are listed, there is a scroll bar - and I am able to verify that BIOS shows the DVD drive as the Primary Slave. So I've tried a couple of combinations...

The contents of /etc/conf/cf.d/mscsi changes whenever I go into "mkdev cdrom" to make changes. I have tried to remove the cdrom drive and start fresh twice, and I need to have a couple of things...

Things are getting a little more convoluted in my head, and I know that with SCO it is vital to perform the correct steps in the correct order. I am sure I'm not doing that, so I need some more...

OK, is that because I have moved the HD to new server hardware? I am having trouble installing because when I run this: mount /dev/cd0 /mnt to try and copy the VOL file from the cd i just burned, it...

Trying to attach my pic again - I do not have a blank for "default router".

After further inspection, I don't think my NIC driver is getting installed at all, even though it gives me no errors. When I type this command: ifconfig -a it shows the Loopback and then it shows...

I have looked in all the settings in the "netconfig" window, there is no place to enter the default router or default gateway. I am attaching a pic of the screen. I will keep trying to find answers...

I had to install a spare disk and then install Windows XP to find out the Bus settings for the onboard LAN ports, but I did it. Now I know what those settings are, so I installed a new LAN adapter...

@jgt - Still no joy with the NIC. When I first deleted the NIC that was in there, I noted it was Intel PRO/100 / PRO/100+, but I did not check any of the other settings. (oops) Now whenever I go to...

I guess it's good that I have retained the habit of never throwing anything away. I found an old 1U rack server with a SuperMicro mb model X7XBI, that has a 775 socket. I first tried installing my...

@jgt - I disabled the scologin per your instructions. The boot into unix still triggers a restart at kernel loading. I think I may have found one of these motherboards online, I have to check into...

I have had a chance to try a few more things, I was focused for a while on this error message that I noticed at some point when the problem first started:



Open event driver failed.... Fatal...

@hicksd8 - yeah I searched the BIOS for a setting like that and I couldn't seem to find it. I will check again though.


@gull04 - The backups were done with HP SureStore Dat24 internal tape...

Well, now I have a bigger problem - or maybe the answer to what's going on all together. I had swapped back to the old hard drive, and straightened out the IDE cable and checked connections, just to...
