alpha + raid 2.4.19-pre8 kernel crash

Made a raid 1 from two partitions, one disk also has root partition.
All is well until I try to mkfs on the md0 device, flips me right back
to SRM with the following message :

halted cpu0
halt code=7
machine check while PAL mode
PC=1d4f0

Another issue is that with all tried 2.4.x kernels halt or reboot will
lock the machine, forcing hard reset.
Kernel compiled as generic, since it does not boot using the system type
from /proc/cpuinfo
I'd be happy to give more info, or test something..
2.4.18 gave me a oops, and the box survived :

Thank you in advance and have a nice day.
