I think the 32bit sparc support has been phased out. Sparc64 isn't a "official port", but there's a port: https://wiki.debian.org/Sparc64 including seemingly regularly updated images. > (As of this weekend, it seemed to be impossible to find the wheezy sparc > distribution images on-line anymore.

Seems like the website hasn't been quite updated to that fact... The installer downloads are still available at: https://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/debian-installer/ but sources.list would need to be pointed at something like deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ wheezy contrib main non-free See also https://www.debian.org/distrib/archive Greetings, Andres Freund
