Hi,
With the rewrite of the e2fs part of SILO, its unable to read
/etc/silo.conf from an EXT4 FS. It can read from EXT2 and EXT3, though.
Dumpe2fs from the partition where silo.conf is located:

Log from boot:
Rebooting with command: boot
Boot device: disk1 File and args:
SILO Version 1.4.14_git2012226_p1
Cannot find /etc/silo.conf (error: 4294967295)
Couldn't load /etc/silo.conf
No config file loaded, you can boot just from this command line
Type [prompath;]part/path_to_image [parameters] on the prompt
E.g. /iommu/sbus/espdma/esp/sd@3,0;4/vmlinux root=/dev/sda4
or 2/vmlinux.live (to load vmlinux.live from 2nd partition of boot disk)
boot:
Obviously the version where it used the e2fsprogs libs works fine.
Thanks
