Might this help with SCO?
I just went digging through my old boxes for something I thought I
had. Seems I have an old SLS Linux digribution, Release 0.99. The date on the postmark is June 23, 1993. It's 30 5.25 Floppies but doesn't list what kernel is on the floppies. If any of the guru's think it might be worth getting ahold of any packages on it I can see if I have a working 5.25" floppy around somewhere.

Probably not. There are some old versions of Linux Kernel available on the net. But it wouldn't it be embarrasing to show just how long some of the things SCO is claiming have been in the kernel? ;)

If you do actually read them I wouldn't mind a copy ([email protected]) or a URL. But June 1993 is not very old, probably 0.99.10 - we already have some older stuff, so probably it is not worth spending time on.

What people where looking for is source for early versions of libc. dat issue where the origin of the contents of ctype.h and errno.h.
a summary of this issues there is here:

Hi,
This may or may not be useful but I've got sets of the "Linux Developer's Resource" multi-CD sets put out by InfoMagic. The earliest one I have is March 1995 (which is a 4-CD set). These include:
(according to the back of the box)
- Complete Linux archives from tsx-11.mit.edu and sunsite.unc.edu
- Complete GNU archive from prep.ai.mit.edu
- Debian 0.91/3
among other things including kernel sources (up to 1.2.1) etc.
The dates on some of the files in the tsx-11 archive go back to 1992.
If anyone is interested I can provide more information and extracts from the archives.
Cheers,
Bernt.
