Default SILO boot problem

Hi All,

This is my first install of gentoo linux.
Doing this on a U10 333Mhz.
Compiled the stuff on sparc64 with mcpu on ultrasparc and mtune on v9.
Now everything finished ok and configured SILO.

I think like it should... but when trying to boot it fails with the
message that it cannot locate my vmlinux image.
But i've specified it all in the silo.conf file and also copied it over
to /boot.

Also neatly updated my fstab to make the fs's ok... but still no succes.
I've double checked everything but don't know what is wrong.

Any suggestions ?

thnx

Sure the /boot fs was mounted, when you copied
the vmlinux or the silo.conf ?
