A bit lower from the same readme calls...

"With old proms, you type prom paths as dev(X,Y,Z) [e.g. sd(0,3,1)].
With new proms, you type the open boot prom style strings such as
/iommu/sbus/espdma/esp/sd@1,0 terminated with a semicolon (;) to
specify disk. Then the partition can be specified, defaulting to the
(optional) partition=Z line in the main section in silo.conf. /dev/sda2
is '2'."

But changing 0 to 1, I am still getting ...

/etc/silo.conf appears to be valid
Fatal error: File systems other than ext2, ext3, ufs and romfs not yet
supported.

So I have to look over something.

Thanks,
