We've got a Sun server that runs a tftp server and a dhcp server; so I 
configured it to provide a linux rescue/root/boot/install kernel from
http://auric.debian.org/~bcollins/disks-sparc/current/sparc64/ to the 
Sunblade 1000's hardware address, and then did a "boot net" from the 
OpenFirmWare prompt on the Sunblade 1000; it picked up the bcollins 
kernel and started the Debian install. I pulled the remainder of Debian 
from the internet via http when the installer got to that point. Then 
after Stable was finished installing, I changed my /etc/apt/sources.list 
to point to Unstable and did a dist-upgrade.

Is that what you were asking?
