Comments/Problems:
The installer runs 2.6.8-1-sparc64 but the archive lists udeb files only for
2.6.8-2-sparc64. The installer cannot find its modules, so it cannot find
any disks.
Fortunately the package still exists in the archive, it's just not listed
in the debian-installer/binary-sparc/Packages file, so it can still be
manually loaded. The workaround is to answer "No, do not proceed without
kernel modules", start a shell, do
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-kernel-di-sparc-2.6/ide-modules-2.6.8-1-sparc64-di_0.02_sparc.udeb
udpkg -i ide-modules-2.6.8-1-sparc64-di_0.02_sparc.udeb
exit
...and try it again. Answer "yes, proceed without kernel modules".
