I have an ancient linux that I want to run on a modern linux host. It's
an old Caldera with a 2.2 kernel. I want to change the directory to an iso
image and mount some device to operate it. Does anyone know the major and
minor numbers of anything I need to create with mknod to mount this linux on
my RH linux host?

To mount an iso image, you can just
mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.iso /directory
but to actually "run" it, you will need an emulator like qemu or vmware.
