Count me in. I put my hand up for a copy of SCO when they were offering free
samplers in the early 2000s, but never heard back from them.
I wanted to compare it with Linux ...
Thanks

I'm in if it can be distributed.
Is it something TUHS can archive? Sorry if that's a newbie question.

For anyone interested, the SCO 2.1 images are available for download here:
http://lod.com/sco
A few things:
1. I am having some difficulty getting it to install in VMWare ESXi 5. The
floppy image boots, and I get some way into the install process, but SCO
install does not see the virtual CD-ROM drive. Thus, I'm presented with
network install options only. At this point, there are a few options:
(a) Track down the driver and/or VMWare settings to fix the CD-ROM
visibility, and proceed with the install.
(b) Set up a SCO network install server, and proceed.
(c) Try the install on legacy physical hardware instead.
Of course, your experience may differ.
2. There's actually an installation guide available for this OS here:
ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/UW21/upd211/eng211.txt
As well as a lot of driver updates and other good stuff:
ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/UW21/
3. Anyone who wants to try SCO for the first time may find 5.0.7 a much
easier go. It will install directly from CD in VMWare, and there is more
driver support for it. To me, it has a very "pure" UNIX feel to it,
other than the gratuitous and absurd use of symbolic links all over the
file system. If you're interested in trying-out that version, let me know
and I'll put up those images for download too.
Regards,
--corey

I have a note to myself to try an install in PCem later today.

I've been trying this myself today, both on ESXi 6.0U2, and I went and
installed ESXi 5.0 as a guest under 6.0U2 :)
I notice that when I put the CD as IDE 1:0 (bus 1, master) it doesn't
find it. When I put it as 0:0 (bus 0, master), it hangs loading the IDE
driver.
I suspect it doesn't know about bus 1, so it doesn't hang but also
doesn't find it, and there's something wrong with either VMware's
implementation of IDE, or SCO's handling of it - or both. I've read
where lots of devices in VMware are just to "perfect" for some device
drivers to deal with. One glaring example was you couldn't use the LSI
SAS driver with Solaris 11. It would either hang or panic, I forget
which. Switch to LSI Parallel SCSI, and it was fine.
Anyway, I suspect that there's something in the IDE driver that's
ignoring bus1, and hanging with VMware's implementation of it.
I'm going to try installing ESXi 4.0 and see what happens.
On another note, it's possible I just need to install the hard drive as
IDE from the get-go, have the CDROM as slave on bus 0 and see what happens.
Any pointers?
thanks!

bochs' IDE implementation results in it crashing and in qemu it panic()s

I believe VirtualBox crashed at about the same point as qemu.

Same result with IDE hard drive on bus 0 master, and CD on bus 0 slave.
Hang loading ide driver.

Hung on ide driver load.

Has anyone tried this on Virtualbox? If not, I'll try it out tomorrow

After a ridiculous method of copying the update 1440k at a time, I upgraded to 2.1.3 and now it boots in qemu.

Well, the subject says "SCO OpenDesktop 386 2.0.0", but what you call
"SCO 2.1" and for which you link updates at ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/UW21/
is UnixWare, which is a very different beast.
SCO OpenDesktop (and SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 that you mention) are SysVR3
based (they are, in fact, the evolution of Microsoft Xenix). Those don't
support at-runtime loadable kernel modules (only at-bootime loadable
kernel modules are supported).
UnixWare, on the other hand, is SysVR4 based, and comes directly from
Novell, who bought it from USL, who bought it from AT&T.
UnixWare 2.1 is the last version of UnixWare before SCO bundled their
"scoadmin" tool with it. UnixWare 2.1.1 also is officially "Unix-95"
certified. UnixWare 2.1 is probably the purest UNIX SysVR4 to be run
on a PC/386, and has very little in common with the archaic SysVR3-based
OpenDesktop/OpenServer releases from SCO.

I got it to install successfully, in VMware Server 1.0.2.
The solution is to boot normally with the "id.dd" floppy image provided
by Corey Lindsly, with the ISO image also provided by Corey configured
as IDE 0:1 (first channel, slave), and with a virtual IDE disk (I'm
using 8 GB of size) as 0:0 (first channel, master).
This setup leads to the already known IDE driver hanging. It's a
problem with the IDE driver provided by SCO with UnixWare 2.1. So,
when the install process asks whether you want to use a "HBA diskette",
load into your PC emulator's virtual floppy drive the updated "HBA
diskette" image provided by SCO for UnixWare 2.1.3, which is here:
ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/UW21/upd213/hba213.img
This will stop the UnixWare 2.1 IDE driver from hanging, and the
install process will proceed successfully to completion.
It should work equally well in VirtualBox.

In ESXi 5.0, using the updated HBA driver diskette, I got to this point
and it locked up apparently (see below). Gotta love Y2K

And now, get a kernel build error.
Looking at it a bit further in a second.

Good stuff. Thanks. I was able to do the install in ESXi 5 with no
problems using this information. Has anyone gotten the networking setup?
There is an Intel PRO/1000 NIC driver package on the SCO site (ptf4016c)
but it is for UW2.1.3 only and I was not able to get it to go. Sadly, the
original 2.1 package ptf4016a appears to be gone. I suppose the next step
would be to run through the updates from 2.1 to 2.1.3 unless someone else
can share a simpler way to bring up a NIC.

I have networking up and running in UnixWare 2.1, on VMware Server 1.0.
VMware Server 1.0 virtualizes the "AMD PCNet" PCI ethernet card, and
UnixWare 2.1 has built-in drivers for it.
Can the virtualization software you are using offer an emulated "AMD
PCNet" PCI ethernet card to the virtual machine where you are running
UnixWare 2.1?
I attach these screenshots for your reference:

https://s29.postimg.org/z0cnios3r/screenshot_06_X11.png
https://s29.postimg.org/g1n3c0mkn/screenshot_07_login.png
And now, it would be nice to have SSHd running. According to this post,
it's doable:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.security.ssh/da7A-ma74zs
Does anyone volunteer to compile a package for SSHd in UnixWare 2.1,
and share it?
Regards,

Install successful on VMware ESXi 6.0u2
IDE hard drive, 2GB, on IDE bus 0, master (0:1)
CD drive on IDE bus 0, slave (0:1)
Network working using AMD-PCNET (VMware flexible adapter)
Same procedure as already posted, using HBA213 floppy image.
Cool stuff.
Side note: I tried a Buslogic SCSI adapter and 2GB hard drive, but after
the install was complete, it hung after reboot, maybe it didn't like the
IRQ the card was assigned to:

I almost hate to bring this up at this point, but it seems worthwhile - are
SCO products now considered legal to distribute? Or just Novell? I had
thought not, but that may well be an outdated understanding of the
situation.

What VM hardware version? It's not working for me w/ flexible or e1000.

Now that's a bit of a bootstrap paradox. ;)
I should be able to do that, actually. Just need...time.

What filesystem type does it use for root/boot/whatever?
Install operating system "X" that supports that filesystem type in the
virtual guest, create a new disk, newfs/mkfs it, arrange the bits from
the tape, take the newly-assembled disk and move to another VM and try
to boot it.
Not remembering anything about how SVR3.2 boots (I think that's what
Opendesktop is?) that's the end of my help on the subject :)

I've always added 'tape' images as 2nd disks and symlinked the devices. Like the old way of installing Xenix, it's not very sophisticated as it looks...

Hey,
Does anyone have any of the floppies for OpenDesktop 2.0.0? Mine got
damaged in a dehumidifier failure before they got to California. The
only survivor was of all things...the QIC-24 tape (which I have read
fine)

./tmp/_lbl/prd=odtps/typ=u386/rel=2.0.0a/vol=1
Anyone know a good starting point for attempting to install it in to a
VM? ;)
