Don't know what the 'I' in SILO is for, but:
LILO - LInux LOader
SILO - Sparc lInux LOader (I'm guessing)
I recall reading something about some trademark problems
with 'sparc' or something - perhaps a trip to the sparc linux pages
would help there...
Or that's what I've been understanding since about the 0.xx days (what, 10 years
ago! yikes, I'm an old man! ;-)

(if any of the above words are trademarks, well then they are!)
