Hello,


I have AMD-based system.
I tried to run SCO in a Xen HVM-domain but without success.
I played with SCO OpenServer 6.

Windows and FreeBSD run on that system without ny problems.


If anybody knows anything about running SCO OpenServer 5.0.5/5.0.7/6
in a Xen HVM-domain, please tell it.

Also,
does anybody know anything about running legacy OSes (like OS/2
and Windows NT 3.51/4.0) in a Xen HVM-domains?
Or I shouldn't think about it and use QEMU?
