Bleeding edge kernel booted on SPARC Classic (32bit/sun4m/v8/50Mhz/96MB RAM)

Some time ago I brought a SPARC Classic on ebay and
this holiday I found some time to play around with it.

I got the bleeding edge kernel booting on the box
and no hicups in the process.
[Lots of smaller issues getting netboot working etc.
but thats another story].

For now it is net booted and runs Linux only in a small
RAM disk. I want to keep Solaris around until I have
captued relevant info (prtconf etc).

I have used buildroot as the base and userspace is
only busybox for now - as it fits in my RAM disk.

I will try with regular intervals to boot bleeding edge
kernels on this box to catch any regressions.
I can assist in minimal testing of SPARC32 stuff,
so just let me know if there is anything to look at.
