probably not .. i can't login to my sparc at the moment,
but look around for something like "/usr/sbin/siloconfig"
or some such - that will walk you through a silo install.
if you know what you're doing, you're welcome to make your
own silo.conf and run silo yourself (its very similar to
lilo)
else install a new kernel-image package, and it (should)
offer to do all that for you
