I have a sco 3.2 system that I tried to load a jumbo tape driver. After loading driver the system will not boot. I am looking for a boot disk and help to repair the boot sector. If anyone can help it would be a life saver.
 
How far does it get? If to boot: then try unix.old Ed Fair

Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply.

Help increase my knowledge by providing some feedback, good or bad, on any advice I have given.

boot not found
cannot open
Stage 1 Boot failure: error loading hd(40)/boot
 
What kind of drive is in this machine? It sounds pretty old. If it is an IDE drive, try checking the drives setup in the CMOS to make sure it has not changed.
