Re: [g4u-help] Recovering Very Old SCO OpenServer 5 System

2009-06-14 Thread Robert L Cochran
Hello Sebastian,

I believe I can get your response translated to English. If you would 
like to respond in Spanish, you can.

I cannot speak or read Spanish myself. But there are others who may be 
able to help me.

Thank you! (Gracias!)

Bob

Thanks Hubert! I'll give it all a try! I hope you get enough sleep! It 
must be close to 5:00 a.m. in Germany as I write this.

SCSI is not "rather old".
Question is if your SCSI controller is recognized, but why don't you just 
bootup g4u and see what happens? Type "disks" and see if anything is 
found. Easy!

There may be uses for SCSI today, but I think they are pretty rate, and I 
stronly doubt your light use qualifies. :)
