Where did you get the OS boot media from? Have you checked in another system that the DVD media is working?

Does the external DVD drive have a AC power adapter?

Try adding the '-r' switch to the boot command:

Code:
 {0} ok boot /pci@8000/pci@4/pci@0/pci@2/pci@0/usb@4,1/cdrom@1 -r

or simply:

Code:
 {0} ok boot -r

or

Code:
{0} ok boot cdrom -r

Make sure you are using the latest Solaris 10 release (01/13). Older releases won't work with a M10 system.
