Comments/Problems:
Trying to install Debian to this SunFire v440 which fails. Extracts from
/var/log/syslog
seems to point to problem with the SUN Cassini driver.

This is the part of kernel startup where network is detected:

(The 3c905B I added just for trying to see if it worked better than the
internal ports)
And this is the part where the installer tries to detect and configure
the network:
