After having a look at the 2842 documentation, I figured the 2842 requires a
"J5 jumper block setting" for machines that do write-back caching, but I
cannot find J5 anywhere on my 2842 board.
Now, setting my L2 cache to Write-Through worked around my "does not boot"
difficulties. This is not really Kernel-related, but might be worth a try if
someone is suffering from "cannot catch Oops since machine does not boot".
