There isn't any way to do it in place. No matter what you do, you will
have to reinstall Xenix on your root.

BEFORE you start this process, you are going to have to hack the
installation floppies. I don't know the exact trick off the top
of my head, but in the next day or two I will work it out. Probably
modify /usr/lib/mkdev/hd. Stay tuned.
