Bug#427826: linux-image-2.6.18-4-sparc64: machine (several tested) hangs after a while



Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-sparc64
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

I have installed Debian Unstable on a SunBlade100 and the box keeps hanging. Sometimes it is after several hours and other just after a few minutes.

I have tried kernels 2.6.21-1-sparc64, 2.6.21-1-sparc64-smp and 2.6.18-4-sparc64.

I have also tried deactivating the framebuffer booting with video=atyfb:off but the behaviour of the system didn't change.

I have moved the HD to another similar machine and it also hanged.

I don't know if there is any magical key combination I can use to get some postmortem information about the system.
