Comments/Problems:
The last lines on the screen contained a few 'Unimplemented SPARC system call
188' messages.
Final messages are:
Busybox v1.00-pre10 (Debian 20040623-1) multi-call binary
Usage: cp [OPTION]... SOURCE DEST
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init
Press L1-A to return to the boot prom
I tried to install without a framebuffer (debian-installer/framebuffer=false)
but ended with the same result.
Finally, I attached a serial console and booted with the option
'console=ttya'.
Everything up to 'Freeing unused kernel memory: 132k freed' is perfectly
readable, but the next messages are somehow garbled up. But it was still
readable enough to see that exactly the same thing had happened: kernel
panic.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
