Sparc64 can't boot w/linux 2.5 current

[Thunder from the hill]

Hi,

I just compiled myself the latest bk kernel for sparc64, and on boot:

Sun Ultra 1 SBus (UltraSPARC 167 MHz), Keyboard Present
OpenBoot 3.11, 128 MB memory installed, Serial #xxxxxxx.
Ethernet address x:x:xx:xx:xx:xx, Host ID: xxxxxxxx.

Booting with command: boot
Boot device: disk  File and args:
SILO boot:
Uncompressing image...
Loading initial ramdisk...

Remapping the kernel... done.
Booting Linux...
(which is the last message I see)

The machine previously worked well on Linux 2.4.14, I can send you the old 
.config if you want me to.

My question now is: where would you search for a bug? Or does anyone have 
some objections about my .config:
