I've also been able to confirm that this happens with Kernel 5.16 or at least similar bugs do such as Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference, programs such as postgresql break dramatically, and another time SSH panicked the system with a kernel unaligned access.

Try with kernel 5.9.x, or maybe better already use 4.19.x on UltraSPARC IIIi which works OK most of the time AFAIR. You can get those from snapshot.debian.org (e.g. [1] or [2]). [1]: http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20190719T183113Z/pool-sparc64/main/l/linux/linux-image-4.19.0-5-sparc64_4.19.37-6_sparc64.deb [2]: http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20190719T183113Z/pool-sparc64/main/l/linux/linux-image-4.19.0-5-sparc64-smp_4.19.37-6_sparc64.deb ...but unsure if your system will run stable enough to successfully finish the installation. Alternatively try to reinstall with an older ISO and work from there: * with 5.9.0-4: https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2020-12-03/debian-10.0.0-sparc64-NETINST-1.iso * with 4.19.0-5: https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2019-06-26/debian-10.0-sparc64-NETINST-1.iso **** There seems to be a problem with UltraSPARC T1s and I strongly believe this or another problem also affects UltraSPARC III(i)s. I have tested a variety of processors here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2021/12/msg00004.html For more details on this/these issue(s) see: https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2021/03/msg00045.html ...and: https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2022/02/msg00000.html Cheers, Frank
