Hello. I have managed to get KNOPPIX 5.1 to boot up in a DELL server that normally runs SCO 5.0.6. The SCO OS seems to have a file corruption in the system partition and I can't telnet or ftp to the server at all under its own OS. Therefore I want to rebuild the box but before I do this I need to copy off vital files which is why I am using Knoppix. However the SCSI drives aren't accessible. I can see Knoppix finds the drives and loads them to /dev/sda4 but when I click on this device from the desktop, I get the following eror message;

"Could not mount device.

The reported error was:

mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified."

What is the filesystem type for SCO 5.0.6?
