# This version of silo is able to load solaris kernel already, you just
26
# specify the name of the image (usually /kernel/unix) without the
27
# /platform/SUNW,SparcStation_5 like stuff on Solaris 2.5+.
28
# You should type there a flag solaris, which tells it is a solaris kernel
29
# and needs special handling (you'll still need to have in / or
30
# /platform/... your solaris ufsboot loader). You can pass arguments to that
31
# kernel using literal argument.
32
# If you want to load a solaris kernel from the command line, you should
33
# either put a keyword solaris somewhere in parameters, or should use name
34
# /kernel/unix (which defaults to solaris).

# This image will appear in the image list only if we are on a sun4u

image[sun4c,sun4d,sun4m] = /vmlinux32

# and this one if sun4

# This image will be loaded and executed if you press <E> at the beginning
49
# of the input line. No Enter key is needed.
50
# If you want to give such a kernel some arguments, you should
51
# enter at least one space before the image name (spaces will be eaten,
52
# but if the single-key label is not the really first letter on the line
53
# it won't be autostarted).
57
# Like this you can build some help system for SILO.
58
# If the user presses some key at the beginning of the line, it will
59
# display some file (the "cat " prefix makes it go to screen instead
60
# of being loaded and executed).
