The above has happened to me almost every single time that I have tried
to install Debian on this machine.  There was a few times, that I did
get Debian to install, but messed up things with the Logical Volume
Manager, and so had to try and re-install and the very disk that worked
would not work again.  I can get NetBSD on it, but I want my apt-get
and my aptitude :)

The phys and virt address above are different from the times when I was
able to get it installed.  I can not recall for the life of me
what they were, but I am 100% sure that the phys address was different.
Not so certain about the virt address.

I have gone through about 13-15 CDs of both the 'netinst' and the
'businesscard' ISO images since near the end of September when I
scrounged the Ultra 2 from a Lab at work to use as my day to day
system.  It is now running NetBSD as I do need something to
run on the box so I can do my work.

What's frustrating is that CDs that worked at one point are not
working the next day !!  Its not a memory issue because I am able
to get Solaris and NetBSD to both work on this system without
any problems.

Version: 1.4.14+git20120819-2+rm

The (32-bit) sparc architecture was last released with Debian 7.0
(wheezy) in May 2013 and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
Since support for wheezy has now ended and the suites have been
archived, I'm closing all the remaining bugs reported against
sparc specific packages.

While the silo package may still be used by the
sparc64 architecture in debian-ports, the Debian BTS cannot be used for
tracking bugs in ports-only packages.
