Re: OpenServer 5.0.7 on Virtual Server or Virtual PC

Here's the answer Bela gave me when I posted a few days ago...

I am attempting to install SCO OpenServer within Virtual Server 2005 R2.

When it goes into the text mode boot screen all the text is just blocks of
blue on black. No letters are distinguishable.

Any ideas what settings I can tweak?

Look for the "ivga" and/or "invd" BTLDs (google "ivga btld", "invd
btld"). You may need one or both of those.

OSR507 boots and installs successfully in VMware WorkStation (tested
5.50) and I expect in VMware Server as well (haven't tried it yet).

Next time, state your OSR5 version number as well as your virtual
machine software version...

I saw some discussions last year about people trying to install OpenServer
on VPC without success. I was wondering if things have changed and whether
anyone had success with Virtual PC or Virtual Server. I am using Virtual
Server 2005 R2.

Basically it is saying it cannot find a root volume.

Thanks for any tips.
