This time I get:

Running "/sbin/silo" failed with error code "1".

Hi Erinn,

This is most probably due to the fact that SILO is not happy when the root partition is in the beginning of the disk and is larger than 1 GB. Possible workarounds are to create a small /boot partition in the beginning or to keep the / partition under 1 GB. Could you please try this and see if it helps?

Best regards,
