Arrow installing solaris 8 on no media Ultra 5 box

I'm a newbie to UNIX
I just received an ultra 5 box that does not come with media. Before I received this box, I was told that it does not come with media.

(I'm assuming that because it does not come with media, that is why when I turn on the system, nothing comes on the monitor.
QUESTION 1: I'm I correct with this assumption? If not what should I do? The monitor is not a sun monitor. Its a monitor that I use for my NT box. The monitor works well with my NT box)

QUESTION2: I have the solaris 8 CD's Pack that I got from the sum websit Now, I would like install solaris 8 on this box. What's the process involved?

Thanks,
Ted
