You can always use dd ...

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛SCO OpenServer is using HTFS, SCO UnixWare is using vxfs. I don't know which one you are using but I'd assume you are using OpenServer.

I don't know whether it will work, but you can try the following:
1. boot into current (old) SCO
2. create a new slice about the same size of the current one on the new harddisk, and set it active.
3. use "dd if=<current slice> of=<new slice> [options]" to duplicate the whole thing. You need to refer to dd(ADM) man page.
4. shutdown the system. swap the old disk with the new one so that the new one is on primary master
5. boot up with the new disk to see if it works
6. if it's not working, you need to go back and find out what you did wrong (or what I wrote wrong in the instruction :-).

If the above still doesn't work, you will need to following the step outlined in the disk recovery section of the hand book (http://osr5doc.sco.com:457/HANDBOOK/restroot.html) to simulate a recovery situation.

For UnixWare, the procedure is similar.

HTH.

PS.
From what I heard, SCO UnixWare is pretty good. It's actually an implementation of UNIX System V Release 5 if I remember correctly. But SCO OpenServer is crap (although based on SVR3.2), too much bagage carried over from xenix. And supporting OpenServer is nightmare (well maybe it's just me, I had bad experience supporting it).

I'm just curious why you want to preserve it since SCO is gone out of business. Well the only reason I can think of is to support legacy application that was writen for SCO. If that's not the reason, I suggest you go with any one of free unices -- Linux, {Free|Net|Open}BSD. They are all pretty good although I'm biased towards the *BSDs. For commercial unix, you can alway download Solaris 8 from sun for free and more importantly, use it legally for free!更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

  • 枫下家园 / 电脑用户 / 各位老师：十万火急！ 如何把10G的硬盘（SCO UNIX-3G和WIN98-7G）克隆到20G的新硬盘中？ -tiger4(tiger); 2001-6-11 {197} (#98188@0)
    我曾用GHOST的DISK TO DISK（20G未分区），WIN98正常启动但UNIX分区被激活后启动失败！屏幕出现：CYL ONF；

    另用PQMAGIC把20G的硬盘分区后再试仍然不行.

    哪位大侠可帮一帮我，最好列出详细步骤，不胜感激！
    • No solution. But here's some information. -turbo(起舞弄清影); 2001-6-12 {321} (#98300@0)
      What's the file system of your UNIX partition? If it's EXT2, you should use the Norton Ghost 2001. The earlier version doesn't support EXT2. (Not sure about Norton Ghost 2000.) If the file system is neither EXT2 nor FAT, Ghost is useless. You'd better look for technical support from http://service.symantec.com
