For a really easy to use Linux distribution for the Sparc32 and Sparc64 platforms you may want to try Aurora Linux (http://auroralinux.org). It's based on RedHat Linux and has a graphical installer and user interface. After you get used to linux and Sparc hardware and want something better you can try debian.
