Cool, I didn't know about that option, I should have looked into SILO
debugging more.
What I get now, is that it loads things pretty normally through all the
normal hardware stuff, but right after it loads the root fs read-only and
devfs, I get this:
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
Mounted devfs on/dev
Warning: unable to open an initial console
It then reboots, I had to Stop+A to get that to copy it down. Is this a
graphics/framebuffer problem?
My current kernel says this:
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 1060x64
Fb0: ATY Mach64 frame buffer device on PCI
Pty: 265 Unix98 ptys configured
Thanks for the help, I hope this is enough info.

Do "linux6 -p" at the SILO prompt so we can get more output.
