Hi all,
I'm now trying to find where can i download a sarge iso to install 
Debian on my Ultra5.


Looking on the mirror list at debian.org, i did not see explicit links 
to some sparc port of sarge ...

You have to use the new debian-installer to install sarge.
Search the archives for that, e.g.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-sparcm=108605054618580w=2

Also, have a look at the debian page for debian-installer:
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
and
http://people.debian.org/~jbailey/d-i/sparc/daily

Good luck,
Martin

debian-installer cd images are known to be broken for sparc64
hardware, with the exception of occasional sid_d-i images that work on
some systems but not others.  Images you could try are at:

The reliable way to get sarge installed on a sparc system is to install
woody and upgrade.
