Hi all ,




I have a very old PC ( Acer2000) 32 Bits. On this machine I am running
(Do
not laugh) SCO Unix in an antique version : So Centos6 probes with the
bootloader on this OS and other OS s.


Is there a way to opgrade Centos 6 to Centos 7 in the 32 Bits
architecture
?

       As far as I know, you cannot upgrade as you would with ubuntu
but have to do a full install. 32 bit images for centos 7 are found at
http://isoredirect.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/i386/


I googled it, and it appears an Acer 2000 is a Pentium-M 1.6 Ghz with 512MB
to 2GB max ram.   I would stick with whatever is working on it, or put it
out of its misery.

You can put one of BSD descendants on it, it will keep flying like a bird happily. Tougher thing would be to find something you will make it busy with, if you have younger, bigger, nicer replacement for it.

My suggestion would be a significantly newer system that supports
virtualization, and run your SCO and whatever in VMs rather than trying to
multi-boot.
