Unhappy Solaris install problem

I am trying to install Solaris 2.8 on an Ultra 5 with Openboot 3.11 from the install cd. I type in boot cdrom, and I get the error: Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/ide@3/cdrom@2,0:f File and args : /platform/sun4u/kernel/genunix. Elf32 read error. I looked up the error, and it said to reset the boot file in the PROM to " " (blank). Is this the correct solution? If so, how do I reset it? Thanks for any help anyone can provide. I am a newbie, especially with OpenBoot.
