I want to move my SCO Open Server 5.05 to another box and unable to get CDROM to read. It tests the CDROM and 'sees it', but after setting all the parms it displays message "Reading of Installation source... extracting files", but nothing is really happening. I left it in this mode for several hours... The CDROM lights do not flash.

I am telling the install it is a Secondary/Master and it tests the CDROM and allows me to move forward. I also tried adding a boot string of defbootstr wd.udma=off and nbuf=100.

Advice?

Thanks
