SCO Ordered to File Objections to Novell's Bill of Costs. Novell Files Motion to Dismiss with SCOTUS
The chickens have flown home and are circling SCO, looking for a place to roost, with SCO doing its dance to postpone the inevitable. Judge Ted Stewart, who presided over the SCO v. Novell second trial has denied SCO's motion to stay taxation of costs, a motion which Novell opposed.
"Motion to stay taxation of costs" is legalese for "SCO doesn't want to have to pay what they owe Novell for dragging them through another pointless trial that found exactly what the first trial found, so it would like to figure out what the costs are later, much, much later." SCO asked for a postponement until all their appeals were decided. But the judge wasn't buying it.
Note they don't have to pay within ten days. They have to tell the court within ten days if there are any items on Novell's bill it thinks it should not have to pay at all.

mkfs.bfs

MKFS.BFS(8)						       System Administration						       MKFS.BFS(8)

NAME

       mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       mkfs.bfs [options] device [block-count]

DESCRIPTION

       mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).

       The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks.  If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.

OPTIONS

       -N, --inodes number
	      Specify  the  desired  number  of  inodes (at most 512).	If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked
	      depending on the size of the partition.

       -V, --vname label
	      Specify the volume label.  I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -F, --fname name
	      Specify the filesystem name.  I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -v, --verbose
	      Explain what is being done.

       -c     This option is silently ignored.

       -l     This option is silently ignored.

       -h, --help
	      Display help text and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.  Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option.

EXIT CODES

       The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong.
