question about d-i and the sparc cds



Hi!

I have two uncommited changes in gluck's debian-cd that we where testing to
see if they solved some issues with sparc cds, I'd like to know if they did
solve the issues and thus I should commit them to debian-cd cvs, or if I
should remove them as they don't solve anything. These are the changes:

The first one was the addition of the initrd-tools in netinst cds, somebody
sugested that maybe this was needed for sparc, do we need it?

The other one was a test joshk was making to see if it solved some mounting
problems, does it work? do we keep this hack?
