Boot floppies for debian sarge

[Fredrik Lindberg <frelin@inbox.lv>]

Hi!

I have a sparcstation 4 that I would like to install sarge on. The machine has
no CD-ROM so I have to use boot floppies. My question is where can I find the
boot floppy images for SPARC? All I find is a 3.6MB .img file, but for the
previous version of debian there were a number of images for 1.44MB floppy disks
(rescue, boot, drivers etc.). Why are there no similar images now? I don't think
I have looked in the wrong place, because I am able to locate the floppy images
for i386.  Is there perhaps some way of splitting the netboot .img file, or is
there some other easy way I can make boot floppies? I intend to install all
packages via network so once I have the basesystem running there is no problem.

I also tried doing dist-upgrade of woody but that lead me to some confusing
libc6 and kernel problem. There is a bug submitted on this I belive...
