SILO does not work in my SPARCstation IPC
Hello, it's me again. This is another issue. When installing
debian in this machine I replaced the original disk with a
1GB DEC Model: RZ26L disk. I repartioned and added a SUN
disk label as shown below:
Expert command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sda (Sun disk label): 15 heads, 80 sectors, 3597 rpm
1703 cylinders, 2 alternate cylinders, 1931 physical cylinders
5 extra sects/cyl, interleave 0:1
SUN1.0G cyl 1703 alt 2 hd 15 sec 80
Units = cylinders of 1200 * 512 bytes
Device Flag Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 0 1618 970800 83 Linux native
/dev/sda2 u 1618 1703 51000 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 0 1703 1021800 5 Whole disk
My fstab looks like this:
/dev/sda1 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0
and silo.conf looks like this:
partition=1
root=/dev/sda1
timeout=100
image=1/vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only
After rebooting at the 'ok' prompt I get:
not nvramrc

I'd like some help in getting it to boot from disk. Thanks.
