Forum for Unix
hi,
Please, do not mind me posting some technical questions here as this is a coffee lounge.
This, Linux forum has been very helpful as such. But, I needed some forum for Unix. I, wanted to install SCO Unix.
I hope, my question is clear.
Please, help in solving the doubt.

I think the BSD subforum is as close as you're going to get here. Not a UNIX/BSD guy myself, but I would imagine that you should find some good information there.

Out of curiosity, why do you want to install SCO Unix? SCO is more or less bust and its Unix businesses went down the hill a few years back.

hi,
thanks, for your reply. If, not SCO unix, let me know the steps for the installation of Unix in general.

It really depends on your requirements and why you're looking to install Unix. If you are looking for general Unix experience Linux or BSD will be sufficient. If you are looking to install a certain application then let that make the decision for you by way of its own system requirements.
If you want something that is official Unix you can run Solaris which is free to download from Sun. I've always had trouble with the proprietary Solaris but the latest openSolaris is supposed to be quite good for hardware detection on x86.
