Has anyone successfully installed SCO 6 in virtualbox 2? If so, would you mind sharing some info such as how to get the network side to work? I had no problems running 5.0.6 but 6 is just frustrating the hell out of me. For instance, I have installed the maintenance pack 4, then I installed the nd package but I do not know how to make sco6 see the intel/pro 1000 NIC virtualbox is offering.

Thanks!
 
I did install SCO 6 on my Virtual Box one time.

Use netconfig. If the system sees the NIC, it will ask
you for config information. If it asks you to select
to select the NIC it does not recognize the NIC. I did have
to add all the latest NIC drivers.

If this does not work, Try changing the NIC in virtual box
and run netconfig again. Probably have to reboot in between
tests.

Sorry, can't be more sepcific. Moved the image after an upgrade and now SCO 5 & 6 tell me they can't find a boot device. Fresh install refuses to see the CD even if I use
and ISO image.

You probably have this resolved, but I hope this helped you out.

Mike
