Hi, our mpc 823 based embedded board (STB, dbox2) would hang with every kernel starting from 2.6.10-rc1_linuxppc. I tracked the problem down to the watchdog interrupt handler setup and the new generic interrupt handling routines (which caused an uninitialized pointer because kmalloc was used before the kmem_cache was initialized).
As said, this was only an issue if CONFIG_8xx_WDT was set. I have attached a simple patch for the handler.
