Ben,
bc> None of that helps it boot a Linux kernel
from an non-UFS filesystem.
There is no non-UFS filesystem here. I
suppose there is a remote possibility of
wanting to boot from an external CD in
the future.
bc> Are you trolling, or do you have a real question hidden somewhere in
there?
I must be trolling--taking the role of a troll.
In any case, have learned a little. I hadn't
thought about the distinction between "booting
the OS" and "bootstrapping the OS Loader".
This is my tentative silo.conf. Perhaps someone
can mention an error or suggest an improvement.
