Comments/Problems:

The first two tries to use DHCP failed, changing cable/switch port
each time.  The third time worked.  The switch indicated the
connection was at 10Mbps.  This could be a problem for others, if it
isn't due to flakey hardware.  After reboot the system went to 100Mbps
full duplex.

Loading sr_mod failed.  This needs to be fixed so we can do
non-network installs.  The busybox modprobe is broken on sparc64, and
I've also had problems with the one in the udeb, so this isn't a new
problem.

The first reboot failed, however power cyclining the system got me
through the second-stage installer.  Errors about respawning were 
received.

After the second stage installer, it left my system unusable.  
It failed to enable a getty for my serial console.

Booting "linux init=/bin/sh" allowed me to edit /etc/inittab to
disable the useless console gettys and enable the serial port getty.

While there were a few glitches, this was my first successfull use of
debian-installer on sparc.

With Microsoft, failure is not an option.  It is a standard feature.
