We have to reinstall the Wordperfect 5.1 to our SCO unix server. We have the floppy disks available. Unfourtenately we don't have the installation guide of WP available. I know there was something special in the installation of WP on the SCO unix system but I cannot remember what it is. Is there somebody who can help me out with this?
 
IIRC you tarred them into an install directory then installed from there.
Somewhere here I have the install directions and will attemt to find them.

Give the wrong symptoms, get the wrong solutions.
 
as root
md tempinstdir
cd tempinstdir
tar extract from install floppy
./wpinstall

it will ask for the rest

after that it will need to set up the user interface and printers, both of which are a little more complicated.

If you would send an email address to the mail server juno.com for a user unixstuff you will get scanned images of the installation guide.
