crippled due to a pulverised right forearm.
I am glad you've found something
Liam,
I have been experimenting with GhostBSD 64bit. It runs quite well under
Virtualbox. It is
supported and updated and has a vast repo. There is a prebuilt package with

Some more info:
Robin,
Rather than going crazy I installed GhostBSD and am happy. To me it operates

Hi,
I have done this using VirtualBox on Windows...
The main issue is that SCO needs to not see 4GB of RAM - use the boot command

Has anyone got SCO Unix to successfully install and run on Virtualbox?
*Which* *version* of SCO? UnixWare, OpenServer, or something older?
My efforts have failed. My host is Ubuntu 22.04 with Virtualbox 7.0.10.
