Assuming the SCO is anything at least relatively modern, such as SCO Openserver 5, then it is probably formated HTFS. I had looked into it back when my company was migrating from SCO to Redhat.
I used to see a commercial implementation available on the web (never tried it), but it doesn't appear to be available anymore. The only hope will probably be to try to mount the drive on another SCO computer, and try to tar the needed files off to tape. SCO used to provide a free license for non-commercial use, but they don't appear to anymore. I had purchased a version years ago for personal use. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Linux Tard Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 4:00 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Viewing SCO Partition with RH 7.3 Pablo you'll need to recompile your kernel to include both FS type support as well as emulation if you want to run binaries on that system, specifically; CONFIG_SYSV_FS is the FS TYPE you want to include as a module, sysv.o If you get lost there is a paper www.crazytrain.com under papers, kernel compiling for forensics, that has the steps that will guide you. It's for forensics, but the steps helped me. If you do the above you'll be able to locally mount those volumes and browse. Alternatively if you run that disk and have NFS set up you could just use NFS to browse the logical contents. lt --- "Pablo L.
