I booted my BSI 486/25 from the Tiny disk.  I tried it on a JCC 386/25
system, no luck.  The 486/25 uses the OPTI chipset, has an Adaptec 1542B
(found by BSD386).  I created the disk using dd from an SCO ODT 1.1 box,
rather than using rawrite.

I now know what I'm going to use all my old SCO distribution diskettes
for :-).
