I used woody boot floppies version 3.0.21 to install the system.
Actually, the page
http://people.debian.org/~aph/boot-floppies-woody/disks-sparc/3.0.21-2002-03-13
/sun4u/
was mentioned on this list.

In fact, the problem occured already while installing the system, but I
attributed it to long-distance links.

Apparently, it's the driver, not the hardware. 

Any suggestions what to do?

Thanks a lot
