Hi,
I am trying to install SCO 7.1 on Centos 5.2 in full virtualization mode.But the installation requires booting from a floppy drive provide in the SCO CD.
I tried different ways to attach floppy drive to the guest.I even tried providing floppy image as a drive to the guest but guest is not booting from floppy.
It will be more helpful if any one help me to get this installed .
Regards, lingu

That's the strangest thing I've seen in a while, I must admit.

I guess it wants to access the hardware directly, which might be a problem in a Xen environment.
Try VMware (workstation or server) to see if it makes any difference.
