But don't resolve my problem because i don't have an
iso netinst bootable.

The only way to boot my station is to use an image with tftp
(http://people.debian.org/~stappers/d-i/images/daily/sparc64/netboot/).
All the netinst iso give me error (Fast Instruction Access MMU Miss -256)
or stop at the kernel loading message (Remmapping the kernel)
