According to Thomas screenshots, the garbage problem is just a "there
is no framebuffer" support problem...so a well known problem for Sparc
installs, no?
But, anyway, eject-udeb templates should be UTF-8 anyway, so we should
probably file a wishlist report to eject for him to ass a
debian/po/output file with:
2 utf8
....just like other d-i packages have (I'm not really sure of the
purpose of this but as Denis Barbier added this here and there, I'm
sure this is needed!)
