I have been using a custom kernel so I cannot say how the debian kernel works. My friend Brad took a look at a similar (possibly the same) issue on his blade 2500. He has a working boot.img and additional information online at http://www.grsecurity.net/~spender/new_sparc_netinstall/
Hopefully this helps you.
