Just for the heck of it, I physically copied the silo.conf
file to /etc instead of just symlinking it:
# mv silo.conf silo.conf.link
# cp ../boot/silo.conf .
# ls -l silo.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2350 Dec 4 17:38 silo.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Dec 1 19:40 silo.conf.link ->
../boot/silo.conf
#
So, I told it then to reboot:
Boot device: /sbus/esp@0,800000/sd@3,0 File and args:
SILO boot:

I guess that means I will have to repartition my HD so whatever it needs is in
the first 1GB of the HD. What would it need then?
