Distribution missed N1 boot disk. Grab it from SCO FTP server: ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/SLS/uod383bon1.Z, don’t mix it with the other boot disk which is for SCO UNIX OS: uod383bun1.Z. Uncompress the boot disk image and rename it just to look nicer:
$ uncompress uod383bon1.Z
$ mv uod383bon1 uod383bon1.img
