Actually, I tend to run OpenBSD on sparcs... [please don't hit me!]

There have been a number of issues with the Sparc32 codebases - hopefully
Anton is still on the case :)

I'd personally suggest using debian/sparc from slink [2.1] onwards.
pre-slink is painful due to the various kernel and libc bugs present.

Redhat 5.x was also surprisingly stable on my ELC.
