SCO Openserver Installation ISOs

Installation ISOs for SCO Openserver are difficult to find on the internet, so I am making the ISOs I have available for download here:

SCO Openserver 5.0.0 Installation ISO (Not bootable)

The N0 and N1 disks are in the CD, to install in a virtual machine I also required the updated WD Boot Time Load Driver then I used the boot string:

restart link="wd" Sdsk=wd(0,0,0) Srom=wd(1,0,0)

SCO Openserver 5.0.4 Installation ISO (Not Bootable)

This ISO is available from the Xinuos website but it can be quite slow.

Boot Time Load Drivers and Boot Floppies

I’ve had a number of requests for emergency boot and root floppy images. The boot and root images are generated from within the operating system and contain the required drivers to access the hard drive controllers of that system. Here are my boot and root images, which I use on VMWare with the lsil controller:

Sco Openserver Emergency Recovery Root Floppy

Bela Lubkin has a list of links and downloads for updated boot floppies on his website, which can be useful if you are trying to install any of the above.

Really hope this is helpful to you.

    What do you do for licensing and keys for SCO not that they are out of business?

    They are not out of business, you can still buy new licenses if required. I am a re-seller.
