I'm getting the following problem: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=609466

However, if I boot with "Linux video=atyfb:off" as suggested in the link it still doesn't work. It always hangs at the boot line

     console [tty0] enabled, bootconsole disabled

and nothing responds. My SunFire T2000 went from working under Debian 5 to completely dead under Debian 6.

Thanks for any help.
     Scott
