Comments/Problems:
I tried to install Debian squeeze with the "weekly-builds" 19-Jul-2010
and 26-Jul-2010 on Sparc hardware (sun blade 100) and the installer
freezes after show the "main menu" blue screen: the keyboard doesn't
work and the only solution is perform a hard reboot (power off)
I tried different USB keyboards and I have the same problem.
But if I try with Debian release 5.0.5 the system install and works well.
