There was in fact in: http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sarge_d-i/sparc/
tree :)

And just launch it but still failled at the same place with same message
(Kernel
panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs.)
umm as said, i am not familiar with d-i (that is a long time that I installed
my woody pc and pre-woody hppa boxes, so I don't remember all details :(
), but I don't understand this message: just after "ENTER" to start the
install a ramdisk is well found and loaded, then during the load of the
kernel,
this one tries again to load (i suppose another) ramdisk which this time
it doesn't find?
The questions are:
a) does it need this second ramdisk?
b) if yes where is it supposed to look for on the cd, in the first ramdisk?
Thanks again for your quick answer,
Joel
