Please edit arch/sparc64/kernel/setup.c, where it says:
static struct console prom_early_console = {
.name = "earlyprom",
.write = prom_console_write,
.flags = CON_PRINTBUFFER | CON_BOOT | CON_ANYTIME,
.index = -1,
};
and remove "CON_BOOT |".
This will allow you to see the crash message.
Please also double check that you patched the kernel with my
fix correctly. I used your exact config, on the exact same
kind of system, reproducing the exact same hang, and it goes
away with my fix.
