Is it SILO that is returning the error or the IPX's PROM parameters? Does the machine come up and say 'ok boot vmlinuz' and then choke?
When I first started playing with Sun machines I changed the PROM to point to vmlinuz and got the same error. I believe changing it to 'linux' did the trick. Unfortunately I'm several miles from my Sparc right now, so I can't check. Thomas 'Balu' Walter wrote: Hiho... I just got an SparcStation IPX where I wanted to install Deb 2.2. (first Deb-install...) Everything seems to work great, but trying to reboot SILO states "could not find /vmlinuz" (or similar). So I think something is wrong with my silo-installtion... I rebooted with the rescue-disk, got my shell and tried to install it myself using silo -r /target Which does not give me an error (/boot is sda1, / is sda2). silo.conf looks like partition=1 root=/dev/sda2 timeout=100 image=1/vmlinuz label=linux read-only Questions are - why is it not working, is the image=1/vmlinuz correct and will I ever be able to find the question to the answer "42"? Please also anwer to me personally as I am not subscribed to the list (yet).
