but when I type [boot cdrom] it seems to reboot, and tell me that there is a media error.

You can't load Solaris 8 on a SS10 - the hardware is too old. I'm not sure if Solaris 7 can go on it, but Solaris 2.6 will.

My questions:

1- where do I get info on SS10 hardware
2- SunOs/solaris install + admin for SS10

Question 1 - Try this link to sunsolve - SS10 Handbook

Question 2 - You should get info with the Solaris 2.6 on how to install - as far as administration, you can either pick up a book, or read through SUN's documents here

Question 3 - such an old system...try either hme0 or le0. Not sure which as it has been some time since playing with a SS10. One of those should work with the ifconfig command. Check the man page on dmesg and then run the command piped to more or grep for hme or le0 - or just read all that goes by until you see the interface being probed.
