Need Help installing Sco 5.07 on XenEnterprise 5.0
I am trying to install Sco 5.07 onto our virtual host which runs XenEnterprise version 5. I am able to boot to the iso and load the files, however when it reboots to boot to the hard drive to continue installation, it fails because it can't find the hard disk.
Any pointers or comments to get this to work?

It's a shame you didn't post the solution here so others could have benefited from it.

At mwecomputers:
It's a shame you didn't notice the marked solution. 5.07 also officially supports vmware--although I don't know why people use vmware instead of Xen.

However, VMWare is supposed to support SCO for virtual environments.
