You say this disk came from a SCO system, so the problem may not be an
incompatibility with the filesystem support provided in Linux. Consider
this excerpt from the linux kernel help:
---- begin of excerpt ----
CONFIG_UNIXWARE_DISKLABEL:
Like some systems, UnixWare uses its own slice table inside a
partition (VTOC - Virtual Table of Contents). Its format is
incompatible with all other OSes. Saying Y here allows you to read
VTOC and further mount UnixWare partitions read-only from within
Linux if you have also said Y to "UFS file system support" or
"System V and Coherent file system support", above.
This is mainly used to carry data from a UnixWare box to your
Linux box via a removable medium like magneto-optical, ZIP or
removable IDE drives. Note, however, that a good portable way to
transport files and directories between unixes (and even other
operating systems) is given by the tar program ("man tar" or
preferably "info tar").
---- end of excerpt ----
So your problem may not be with filesystem support, it may be with
partition support.
