SCO Files MORs for September in the Bankruptcy

SCO is apparently almost out of money, according to the MORs they just filed for September in the bankruptcy. Maybe that's the explanation for SCO's sudden desire to expedite the appeal after initially asking for more time to even file its brief. Unless they have a buyer, I wonder if they can even last until January, when the appeal is scheduled to be heard.
SCO Operations shows a negative cash flow, and only $738,090 in the bank. Total disbursements for the month were more than that, $886,656 of which $409,902 was for professional fees. At the end of August, SCO showed cash at the end of the month in the amount of $1,369,642, with a positive cash flow, and only $397,344 in disbursements. I gather they were behind, perchance, on paying professionals?

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 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
