The issue is happening because config page is timing out and initialization is not successful Can you collect the kernel messages even for the KERN_DEBUG messages also for mpt driver? This is to find out which config page is failing. Also what is the f/w version of LSI53C1030 SCSI controller that you are using. We need to verify the compatibility between the f/w and version versions that you are using.

I have the latest linux-image-3.1.0-1-sparc64-smp and the same problem. SunFire v490 is running well with linux-image-3.1.0-1-sparc64 (non smp).
