Subject: Suse 7.1 and SILO help ?

     I tried installing 7.0 first then upgrading to 7.1 and the beta blew away
    my SILO and I couldn't get it working any way shape or form. So I dropped
    that and just reinstalled 7.1 again and now I am trying to fix 7.1 to work
    again. I guess my problem comes in with SILO. Can anybody give me a hint
    as to what I need to do to get this version 7.1 to work with SILO.

      I only installed the 32 bit SMP 2.4 kernel, is that the problem?

     My system uses disk1 to boot SUSE on sd@1,0
     When my system boots gives me the SILO prompt and then tries to uncompress
    the image, after several seconds I get an error about the image is too long.

     I did run silo -t on a second console to install silo.

     Please help.
