I've just tried[1] out the latest netinst image, and even though silo.conf has rootfstype=ext2, I also gave it a test run with rootfstype=ext2 explicitly entered at the silo prompt - but without any luck. Just for the sake of it, I even did a test run explicitly entering all of the parameters[2] from the silo.conf, but it still did not take me any further than: [...] NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.
