[S.u.S.E. Linux] HELP- howto mount SCO-part.ID#63 ?
Hi fellows Howto mount SCO-part.ID#63 and access the content ? fdisk shows: Partition ID: 63 GNU HURD To resque data and apps residing on an old SCO partition, I first made a copy of the partition (Powerquest DriveImage) and transferred it to another SCSI and also to an IDE drive. There on a new machine I installed SuSE, Caldera and was unable to mount the partition with the driver: sysv (I checked that the sysv is available as module in both distrib. and I loaded it manually and checked - Ok.) The sysv is meant to mount SCO, XENIX and Coherent, but I cannot find info about the supported IDs. Then I installed SCO OpenServer 5 on the same machine, to make shure I have the same ID# and try to mount the old part. with the new SCO. This experience was very disappointing, since SCO creates ONE partition with the ID# 63 and puts it's own work partitions inside this ONE ! Using SCO, I tried to mount the old partition, but SCO is unable to see any foreign partitions on the drive - strange for me, life seems more convenient if using Linux. One AIX guy also had no answer for that, he told me, that AIX behaves like Linux concerning the partitions. (The idea using a new SCO was to mount the old part., then transfer all content from SCO-box to a Linux box using NFS) I still need to access the content of this old SCO partition. Can anybody help me with this issue - please ? Experience ? Thanks very much. -- Ludwig Richter CGI consult <A HREF="http://www.cgicon.com/"><A HREF="http://www.cgicon.com/</A">http://www.cgicon.com/</A</A>> Lu@cgicon.com With Acknowledge: richter@cgicon.com _________________________________________________________ Sent with Netscape Communicator 4.04 on S.u.S.E.Linux 5.2 -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
