Here's some relevant information by Vincent, who probably forgot to CC: debian-sparc :-).

2.6.8-2 : Keyboard problems
This is well known problem, I believe. While 2.4 kernels required a special sparc keymap, 2.6 expects the same keymap on all architectures. AFAIK, you can look at the config files in /etc/console or use dpkg-reconfigure console-tools to select the i386 keymap (note that I have never done it myself).
mv boottime.kmap.gz boottime.old.kmap.gz works too. The dpkg-reconfigure way of doing that is selecting "keep kernel keymap" iirc. Note that you'll need a remote access to do that - or a huge amount of time, trying key by key to see what does what.
