This article should really just be merged into a more general article, perhaps Boot Loader. SILO was a predecessor to LILO, helping to give LILO it's name, at least. It should get a brief mention in the LILO article, and this small section should be merged into the "Boot Loader" article. I don't think SILO has significant importance anymore, considering that other boot loaders (presumably GNU GRUB in the future) can boot Solaris systems and/or OSes on SPARC architectures.
