The 3.16 kernel is far too old.
It doesn't even makes sense to debug this kernel any longer, which is why
I said you should update to latest debian unstable (and it's written in the
installation wiki as well).
You have to keep in mind, that the parisc linux port was really nearly stopped
when I built this install CD. Since then we have fixed an uncountable number of
bugs.
So, please update all packages including kernel, glibc and so on.
If you face problems then, please let us know.

You could try to boot with the "nosmp" kernel option (add it at the IPL prompt).
Probably "autofs=off" (not sure if this is the syntax) could work as well (if you think it's the autofs module).
If you have booted up, update kernel and packages.
