Could you test the following: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/sparc/iso-cd/debian-testing-sparc-netinst.iso The image you point is, if I'm correct, built from the alpha1 release of D-I and the above might be bette rsuited. Please however note that I'd prefer having you to test a daily built netboot image but these are apparently not built since....July 12th (Geert? Any hint?)
