Silo Problem



I was trying to customize my silo.conf and screwed something up so I returned it to its original state as follows:

partition=2
root=/dev/sda2
timeout=100
image=vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only

but now when I reboot I get this

SILO Syntax error in etc/silo.conf

at "boot:" I try

/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2
or
/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35 root=/dev/sda2

and get

Fatal error: Unable to open filesystem

This setup worked before what else could I have changed to mess it up?
I'm running Slink on an IPC, with Silo version 0.8.5. I've checked both /vmlinuz and /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35 are present and spelled correctly. For now I have to boot off a floppy but I would like to fix this..help...
