SPARC has had some kernel issues recently which should be resolved as of writing, but it is still a community-supported architecture. silo at the moment is broken though causing d-i to FTBFS, and the installation to bomb out, its been on my TODO list to look at this for awhile, but I have no ETA on when that might be.
At the moment, the best way to install is to use a Dapper or Hardy (depending on your machine, I had to use Dapper's installer to get my SunFire to install, but Hardy's installer should work), then upgrade to the desired release. Jaunty's netboot installer may also work, but I haven't personally tested it.
