I'm got a set of installation disks for SCO Xenix, and I'm almost
certain it's a version called Xenix/286 - although it might be
Xenix/386.

I tried to install it on an old machine once, but hit a wall when it
asked for some kind of serial number or product key - it wasn't any of
the numbers printed on the disk labels.
