That's great that you were able to make this work. What was the

I hate letting things like this go and just say "great it works now",
I'd like to sit down and try and figure out what the actual cause was.
Thanks Jurij.
Hi Dave,
I used my favourite clueless poking technique and it "Just worked" :-).
Below I am including the diff between the "broken" sparc64 config
(currently in the archive) and the new "fixed" one. You can extract the
complete config from any kernel-image .deb by unpacking it with 'dpkg -x
kernel-image-<version>.deb .' and looking in boot subdirectory.
