Yep

1/42 is the root filesystem
1/40 is boot
1/41 is swap
1/42 is root
Use the divvy command to see your filesystem layout.
You will need to boot up into single user mode.
Then try a fsck -n first to see how bad thing are before the big one "fsck"
then start answering questions.
You better get to it before things degrade any more.
After it fixes the filesystem it will probably say something like "reboot -
no sync"
This means press the reset button, do not control-c back to the prompt and
do any more work

Depending on the version of sco you may have to add the serial card.
This is done with "mkdev serial"
The way to find out what is in the kernel is a "hw -c -h"
