	SILO Sparc linux load---
If you have Linux and Solaris on different disks, then just do:
boot disk1
to boot Linux with SILO
and 
boot disk2
to boot Solaris
(of course, replace disk1/disk2 with actual PROM identification/aliases
of your disks).
Currently the best way how to make SILO even work with Linux and Solaris on
the same disk is use silo -t to put SILO bootblock on the Linux partition,
so then you boot
boot disk:a
to Solaris
and e.g.
boot disk:f
to Linux.
If I find some box with Solaris I'll able to play with (currently I have no
Solaris around me), I'll make sure the /boot/old.b method works.
The other method (solaris keyword) should be dropped, it will not work
correctly. It worked once with Solaris 2.4 when I wrote it, but AFAIK it no
longer works, especially on sun4u it cannot work.

SILO  (you may already have started a note on silo ?)
Boot from floppy to rescue.  Mount the root partition and check to see if 
there is a valid /etc/silo.conf file.

If not try entering one by hand using 'cat > /etc/silo.conf' and enter 
something like below, adjusted for your system (partition, root, image name):

timeout=50
partition=1
root=/dev/sda1
image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux
        root=/dev/sda1
        read-only

silo is  a boot loading code for sparc. It is loaded right into nvram and 
contains options that can be applied for certain desired effects.
	What are those options ?
