Even though I can't really find any reports of T2000 installs of
squeeze after it was released, we had at least one report of
successful install with the early version of squeeze installer:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=541831
There were also a couple of reports of kernel panics during
squeeze installer boot (with slightly different messages though) on
Niagara machines, which eventually got "cured" by a firmware update:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2010/03/msg00589.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2011/02/msg00037.html
Another option you have is to try the daily wheezy installer builds,
available at
