In the sccstool I read in prom.c Calc BAT..... this may cause trouble if
the framebuffer is really badly aligned.......
TODO: Check 601 case...

How can I help?

Well, you can check disabling that (and the call that sets up this BAT in
head.S) but don't forget, if you do that, to also declare
bootx_text_mapped to 0 before leaving prom.c

I did so, in head.S I if'ed 0 the setup_disp_bat part. In prom.c I
commented out the prepare_disp_BAT(two times) and I set
bootx_text_mapped in these sections to zero. I also put out mesh.
Now the machine comes up again.
But on shutting down I get a terrible nfsd panic with lots of crash
code. (dump available)

So far my experiences......
