I noticed this problem when trying to boot 2.4.18 on a Netra t1 200.
Basically what will happen is the kernel will mount / read-only, then try
to load /sbin/init, at which point it hangs. If I a dynamically linked
wrapper around /sbin/init then all is happy and the system boots fine.
Any ideas or clues?

Known bug with sparc + static binaries. Use 2.4.19pre1, or if you want
2.4.18 just extract the binary loader patch from 2.4.19pre1
