I did not realize this wget being less forgiving than woody's. Sorry! The real reason for the failure is a zero-byte resolv.conf. So for some reason the DHCP client only gets part of the information (IP, router). A few days ago with the netboot image from p.d.o/~jbailey/d-i/sparc/daily/sparc32/netboot/ it worked flawlessly ( no, I did not change my DHCP setup). 'echo nameserver 192.168.200.4 >>/etc/resolv.conf' solved the problem temporarily. But then it tries to load the wrong kernel (2.4.24-sparc64-di), and I am lost.
