    Looks like there was Solaris installed before and silo was not installed
    correct afterwards.

    Boot from cdrom or net with
    boot net noinitrd root=/dev/sda<your root device>
    or
    boot cdrom noinitrd root=/dev/sda<your root device>
    or
    boot cdrom manual
    and select "boot installed system" from linuxrc. Then look at /boot/silo.conf,
    fix it and call "silo".

    Linux is like a Vorlon.  It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
    cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
