2.6.10 kernel hangs after timer_init

[goog long]

2.6.10 kernel hangs on my board with PPC64 processors. The log is below. There must be a fix for this somewhere because it boots just fine on 2.6.14 kernel. Could someone please point me to the fix for this?

time_init: decrementer frequency = 112.500000 MHz
time_init: processor frequency   = 1800.000000 MHz
 -> set_preferred_console()
stdout is /ht at 0/isa at 8,2/serial at a0
Found serial console at ttyS0
