Problem with 3.0.9 on sparc (Netra X1)

[Adam McKenna <adam@debian.org>]

I'm having problems with the current sparc installation on my Netra X1.

First off, after the kernel and driver modules are fetched from
http.us.debian.org, I get the following error:

ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy

After doing this, I drop to a shell and execute the following command:

# debootstrap --arch sparc woody /target http://http.us.debian.org/debian

The install stops here:

Selecting previously deselected package libc6.
(Reading database ... 216 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking libc6 (from .../libc6_2.2.4-1_sparc.deb) ...
Setting up libc6 (2.2.4-1) ...
Current default timezone: 'UTC'.
Local time is now:      Thu Nov 30 01:04:15 UTC 1967.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Nov 30 01:04:15 UTC 1967.
Run 'tzconfig' if you wish to change it.
Package `sysvinit' is not installed and no info is available.
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

The complete log is at http://flounder.net/minicom.txt.  It stops at the same
place even if I set the clock to the correct time.

Any suggestions?
