i managed to install sarge on the system and i could do a more fine grained 
research.

i can now boot fine the machine with kernel-image-2.6.8-power3-smp version 
2.6.8-6. if i use kernel-image-2.6.8-power3 version 2.6.8-6 i get problem 
with the symbios controller. i attached the full log of the UP kernel and a 
piece of the log of the working SMP kernel.

this happens with both kernels and it is apparently unrelated.
