What kind of network card does your machine have? What error messages do 
you get? What kernel modules have you tried to make network work?

This is well known problem, I believe. While 2.4 kernels required a 
special sparc keymap, 2.6 expects the same keymap on all architectures. 
AFAIK, you can look at the config files in /etc/console or use 
dpkg-reconfigure console-tools to select the i386 keymap (note that I have 
never done it myself).

Can you post more information about this failure? What kind of SCSI 
controller is in this machine? What modules are loaded on boot?
