EMC Objects to SCO's Cure Amount and a Tiny Bill from Tanner Arrives

All the intricacies of SCO never alter the big picture, do they? The first objection has arrived to SCO's recently-filed cure amounts. And shades of DaimlerChrysler, check out the reason:
As agent for the creditor, EMC Corporation ("EMC") who acquired Data General Corporation ("DGC"), we object to the Debtors' proposed assignment and cure amount for a "Source License Agreement" with DGC. EMC is not aware of an ongoing contractual arrangement with the Debtors. In fact, service and maintenance support between the parties stopped almost two (2) years ago.

In order to properly evaluate the assumption and cure, EMC will need the Source License Agreement, together with a list of all equipment related to the Agreement. Without this information, EMC cannot agree to anything.

Funny, no? What license agreement? Nothing ever really changes in the SCOniverse. And the cherry on top is that the letter comes from Receivables Management Services, and so their letterhead shows a big RMS. If you put that in a movie, unless you were Groucho, people would say you were over the top silly.

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 Display 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. SEE ALSO
