I *think* this makes the list.. dunno the date off the top of my head... Anyway, sorry if it's O.T. The Sun monitor is much too large for my already over-crowded computer room, so I've set it up to boot a dumb terminal (will later be hooked up to my multiport serial card when I put the Sparc under my desk..) The problem is the last guy that had the Sparc really screwed up /etc/silo.conf and SILO requires me to type 1/boot/vmlinux root=/dev/sda1 ever boot (oh, I run linux ;) ) Can someone tell me how to make /etc/silo.conf boot the machine automatically? Eventually I'm going to make it a web server... when I buy a router (probably this weekend.)
