Hi,
I have a Sun Blade 100, on which I have am trying to install Debian testing -

That is a pretty well-known problem. It usually does not trigger for
Blade 100, but affects a lot of newer systems :-(. Our current hope is the
new SILO version (1.4.11), which we are currently trying to get into the
archive. I've build an unofficial sid xCD image with it, it would be very
helpful if you could test it and report back your experiences. If you want
to get a useable system, your pretty much only option at this point is to
netboot.
