Will a config booting 3 kernels work? Here's my /etc/silo.conf below.

--Start silo.conf--
partition=1
default=Debian
read-only
message=/boot/message.txt
timeout=30

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26-sparc64
        label=stable
        root=/dev/hda4
        
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26.081804
        label=Debian
        root=/dev/hda4
        
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.24.081904
        label=2.4.24
        root=/dev/hda4
--End silo.conf--

HTH,
Jacob
