I have a similar problem on a Sun W1100z but after an updating, the system just keeps auto rebooting. Since I never get the grub menu, I can't boot the original image and roll back. The same thing happened after a clean install then adding postgres3 and the compilers. I was going to do some more testing before filing a bug report, but I guess I should go ahead and file it, then add more details as I discover them.
