The sparc platform has a problem that if I boot with init as a "hello world"

if you boot with init=/tools/bin/bash it hangs. And so do the busybox

ok,
I found this file (google for it): stage3-sparc-2006.0.tar.bz2
I put it into a vmdk image file, preformatted in ext2 fs.
I touched up a few files and used the sparc kernel and
binaries from the qemu-windows page.
I've now a native compiler for sparc32. I managed some
stuff with it already.
