5.4-RELEASE on Blade100 hangs jumping to kernel entry

[Richard Cotrina]

Try installing using serial console. It will boot without problems.

However, during installation, you probably will fall in troubles with the 
ata disk, with messages like: "TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA". It happens in my Sun 
Blade 100.
