Benyo,
In principle SCO apps should run fine if you install the iBCS2 module.
You have to compile a kernel with modules support, and get the ibcs2 
package from tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/BETA/iBCS2 or some mirror.
Then, compile and install this module with insmod and you should be able 
to run your SCO binaries. Just follow the iBCS docs.
