So I just gave this a shot on my SunBlade 2500 and ran into a small issue when the installer gets to the point for Installing the base system. "The debootstrap program exited with an error (return value 127)." With in my syslog I see the following,

I can attached the complete log for the syslog but I think that the above is the important section. Let me know what you think.

Hi!

After a half year break, I have finally created new installer images for
Debian sparc64. These are currently being uploaded to my Debian webspace
and should be completely uploaded within the next minutes, see [1].

A quick and rough installation guide can be found in [2], please let
us know if you encounter any issues or want to give feedback. These
images have not been tested so far as I just generated them this
night.

Thanks,
Adrian
