A quick test with qemu-system-sparc64 (which is all I have to test with
here) shows that the image now boots correctly all the way through to
the Debian installer, although I need to increase the minimum amount of
RAM to 256M compared with wheezy.

Congratulations on reaching such an important milestone! Once this
becomes an "official" Debian download, I'll add it to my OpenBIOS test
suite to help shake out any other bugs with QEMU and the kernel.


ATB,

Mark.

Started installing in an LDOM, seems to be working fine. Came as far as specifying the mirror, where I'm a bit lost as to what I should specify to make reprepo create a local repo for stretch.
