A few months ago I was able to successfully install from a debian sparc netinst iso. This doesn't seem to be possible now as the install hangs right after the Detecting Hardware dialogue (after asking for hostname and domain). The screen will change from the usual blue background/light grey foreground to completely black display. The iso is linked below. I used `qemu-system-sparc -hda deb-sparc.img -cdrom debian-31r5-sparc-netinst.iso -localtime -nographic -boot d` to try the install again on the same linux x86 host. http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/3.1_r5/sparc/iso-cd/debian-31r5-sparc-netinst.iso
