Well, we live and learn. The old Toshiba that I got from Joshua is
apparently too fast for the SCO floppy drivers. Must be some weird
timing loops but it is what it is & even a brand new floppy with the
boot disk from ftp.sco.com crc's out when I try to boot it with a
different "bad block" each time. The only suggestion I found online is
to turn off caching (CPU?) so I turned off the CPU cache but no difference.
SO I am still searching for a cheap 386 or 486 laptop now that we know
that 586 is too new for this project.
Thank you all.
William
