I've got a Sun SPARC enterprise T5120 that is still waiting for a

GRUB installable/usable? How do I install it?
Which images did you use to install Debian onto your SPARC?
The current images should install just fine and also install SILO
automatically. I verified that with the images that are currently
available for download from [1].
Regarding GRUB, there is a howto for installing it on Eric's wiki [2].
But you will still have to build GRUB from source from Eric's tree
as most of the patches haven't been merged yet, unfortunately :(.
