sparc

Yay, I got a sparc! Now I am able to run automated d-i tests on three architectures. Not bad for someone who had only ever had i386 boxes until 2 months ago. Looks like it won't be too hard to add support for automating the sparc installs, most of the work I've done for automating ia64 installs over serial consoles will apply. The ultra 5's in the middle of its first Debian install now.

Actually so far the only hard thing has been getting a serial hookup that works. I ended up building an i386 out of spare parts, installed Debian on it this evening and am using it as part of my conserver network, since none of my existing servers had a spare 25 pin serial port. Well it also let me put the sparc in the room I had wanted to put it in.
