    Well, 2.4.6 won't boot.

    Silo starts to load the image, the fails with an 'image too large to fit in
    destination'
    or some such error.

    I'm going to try paring down the image (more modules, yech!) and see
    if that helps.

    Not sure why i'm getting that error, as the size difference from 2.4.3
    and 2.4.6 is fairly small (3487313-243 vs 3829632-246)

    I've upgraded silo to 1.20, and the 2.4.6 image still doesn't load --
    however
    a new problem is that the 2.4.3 image won't load either. Sigh. Back to the
    boot-CD
