Bug#349857: linux-image-2.6-sparc64-2.6.15-1-sparc64: panics on boot on v210

 That gets it further, but then it fails as follows (where sda1 is
 /boot).  If I then get in single-user, I see /dev/sda1 mounted on /,
 but there is no /dev/sd*, i.e. no sd devices, which looks odd.

 please try latest klibc-utils and libklibc from incoming.debian.org
 or later this evening in unstable, calling update-initramfs -u
 will get those on your initramfs.

Does that mean I should file a bug against yaird, which was what
failed as above?

 Try installing yaird and using that to generate your initrd.

  The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
  filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
  filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
  is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
  e2fsck -b 8193 device
  
  fsck failed.  Please repair manually.

By the way, the trouble with reassigning bugs like this is that anyone
who checks for existing reports against the kernel (like I did)
doesn't see them.  It guess it would be helpful if there was some way
to leave a pointer in the original place (assuming it's a likely
package against which to report the bug).  Is it possible to operate
the tracker so that it does that?

nice thought,
but the kernel has so many bug reports,
we are happy when they are so nicely isolated and easy to fix like
that one.
early boot troubles are most probably not kernel bugs.

regards + good luck
