Hi, I've had exactly the same problem. The only way I could get my SparcStation20 to have installed Debian, without any problems like this one, was to do a Sarge install and keep the /etc/apt/sources.list referring to the CD only. The machine works brilliantly, but does not get any updates. Sort of half a win!
I tried all sorts of things, including the dist-upgrade route, but still no luck. Thanks, Chris.
