Applied your patch to 2.6.27.19 - hangs at the same point. Output
is on the web.

One disk fails diagnostics (see below), but works later without a problem.

the OBP diagnostic, so that does to matter IMHO. The 480R is the
one with the cassini driver crashing the machine, so tests are a little
bit more clumsy. 

Btw.: I upgraded the 480R to debian lenny and compiled a 2.6.27.x kernel
- hangs the same point.

Thanks for looking again,
