OK, this looks good. What does the kernel command line say? > mosca@ultra45:~$ lsmod > Module Size Used by > ext4 794624 2 > crc16 24576 1 ext4 > mbcache 24576 1 ext4 > jbd2 122880 1 ext4 > crc32c_generic 24576 3 <== this is the correct module that > should be used, fresh install tries to use crc32c which fails, due to > lack of crc32c opcodes in this older cpu. The question is whether this is related to the failure you are seeing and I am not sure about this. It seems that there were some changes to ext4 with regards to crc32c [1]. If this is actually the problem, we need to figure out why the wrong module is loaded on your machine. I don't have an answer to that from the top of my head. You can try blacklisting the crc32c_sparc64 module from the kernel command line.
