[Debootloaders-silo] Bug#688521: SILO first boot after power-on or reset fails on Netra T1 200

This is something to do with the type of disc being used, i.e. the exact 
firmware version or similar, rather than the Debian release or the 
version of SILO etc.

I'm using non-Sun SCA discs, badged Compaq but apparently WD. Some work 
OK while others- nominally the same but with visibly different PCB- fail 
the first boot.

This might still be specific to OBP in a Netra T1, both types of disc 
boot first time in an Ultra-1. It affects Lenny, Squeeze and Wheezy, and 
possibly other OSes.
