	Let me amplify on the sentiment already coming in here.
If your hardware is a *true* clone, then installing Microport is
easy.  If it isn't, then it's a real nightmare.  But let me add
that it isn't just Microport; SCO turns into an equally big pain
when your hardware acts up.  So let me suggest that your friend
try a different hardware vendor, and iterate the install.  Or maybe
it's just the hard disk interface--try a different brand.
