I'm novice in UNIX.I have to install SCO 5.0.0 but I only have 1 cd. This cd is not bootable, and I have no floppy. How can I install this OS. Thanks a lot for your help.
 
The cd *is* bootable though perhaps your cdrom is not (or isn't set correctly in your bios- check that).

That cd can be put in any Unix or Windows machine. I don't recall that version, but the floppy images and the tools to create the floppy are usually under the "images" directory.

However- you should NOT be using that version. It's very old, and won't work at all with quite a lot of modern hardware. See and get yourself the 5.0.6 CD and a license.
