Dd (raw) image of SCO 5.0.6 mount as second hdd

By OrangeKenny

Hi all
I have read about mounting crashed HDD from a sco system in this forum. However this I received an image on raw format of the crashed system that was using an IDE HDD. Which method should I mount my image? IDE scsi or USB? The image is stores in an external connected through USB .

Also the tried to mount using red hat and the error told me the image file system is sysV GnU. Is this normal? I have never come across this file system type in my reading about sco.

Appreciate if you can give me tips to proceed my attempts to mount on a new sco machine. My goal is to read the data on the image of crashes sco system.

Thanks

Virtualize SCO 5.0.6 with Microfocus COBOL – Help needed

By sopela123

Hi all,

I am trying to virtualize a running SCO 5.0.6 system with microfocus cobol installed.

I have already managed (thanks to the people in this forum) to install the operating system.

I dont have the cobol installation media anymore. I have copied (using cpio) all directories from physical sytem to virtual.

But when i execute cobrun (the cobol runtime) I get following message:

dynamic liner: /opt/lib/cobol/rts32: error opening libmbcs.so.2.0
Killed

The file libmbcs.so.2.0 is already in that path, any suggestions ??

Thanks in advance and best regards
