sda3 should be "sun disk label" and "whole disk".

* Look for those key words in the doc:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/sparc/ch-init-config.en.html#s-dbootstrap-partition
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/sparc/ch-partitioning.en.html

* And look in the mailing list archives, for exemple the question:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2001/debian-sparc-200109/msg00049.html
and the answers.
