It's a pity you haven't post it earlier as I lost few hours fixing missing topology_init. Anyway, it is a huge improvement other the current state of official kernel.

I was able to boot and two cpus were detected (Supersparc II) but the machine opened PROM console after mounting tmpfs filesystem (for the /tmp directory). The harddisk filesystems were mounted correctly. I will try to look into this problem.
