Package: linux-image-2.6.18-1-sparc32
Version: 2.6.18-2
Severity: important
2.6.18 kernel fails to boot on my sparc32 system: Sun SparcStation 5/170,
256M RAM, onboard SCSI with disk, cdrom and external tape drive.
First it oopses on sysfs file open and then waits forever for root disk. 2.6.17
booted fine.
I observed the same exact problem on the SparcStation 5 emulated by
QEMU. I haven't reported it because I first thought it was a bug in QEMU.
Note that there as been a lot of changes on the ESP driver in 2.6.18,
the main one being:
commit 411aa5540536feace62c97478a8ea5dab7469377

[SCSI] sparc: Port esp to new SBUS driver layer.
This also turns the driver into a new-style scsi driver.

It has been followed by a few small fixes.
