Bug#251538: SPARC32 fails to boot from CD
Package: installation-reports
on my Sparc Classic with only 16 MByte of RAM,

fails to boot. d-i's last words are:
-----------------schnipp-----------------
__alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)
VM: killing process cp
Killed
Kernel panic: Attempt to kill init!
Press L1-A to return to the boot prom
-----------------schnapp-----------------

However, the netboot image

boots fine, the installer starts and only fails later due to lack of memory
