You can try http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/lucid/main/installer-sparc/current/images/netboot/
but I should warn you that it does not work for me (on my SunFire
T1000 system).

I have not been able to do a new install of a Sparc system with any
recent version of Ubuntu. I used to be able to install Gutsy and
upgrade from there, but recently even that does not work for reasons I
cannot figure out.

I have switched to using Debian (Testing) which does install properly
on my Sparc systems.

Good luck!
