Mount htfs drive

4play · 07-18-2009, 11:54 AM

I have an old drive from a long retired SCO box which i have been trying to mount with linux but its appears there is no legal way of doing it and the legal ones have long disappeared.

I know nothing about SCO and the time it will take to install it onto a spare server to recover the stuff off the disk is prohibitive.

The disk itself is one part of a raid1 set so using a virtual machine is probably gonna be a bit tricky.

thanks

mount -f HTFS /dev/hd* /mnt

i would try that if it doesn't work then i would look around for the fuse file for HTFS or something like
http://htfs.sourceforge.net/
which is for FUSE so i would do the first command then try that file

mount HTFS does not work but the htfs fuse file looks promising.

The only problem is there is no documentation for it at all so i have no idea how it works.

any ideas how to mount something with fuse.
