I'm not sure actually but back then you were definitely installing Debian's sparc port (32-bit userland / 64-bit kernel) which is no longer part of Debian. We are now working on a new, full 64-bit SPARC port called "sparc64", so many things are actually built from scratch. It's therefore not unlikely that the old installer images contained some work-around to address the problem, at least initramfs-tools contains one [1] which is not used in the installer image, however, and people therefore have to load the modules manually for the installation. > Either way, I'll look at this patch, thanks.
