Hard to say what the problem is. About the only thing you can do is double check all your information.

Default for cdrom normally c0t6 - check that you have actually set the cdrom to target 4 - the controller could be different (cXt4).

Check that the /dev/dsk is there.

Insure you did a boot -r after installing the cdrom.

See if the cdrom shows up at the ok prompt (probe-scsi-all).

See if you can boot cdrom -s.

Look for any errors in dmesg or /var/adm/messages.

It seems that you should not have had to create the cdrom directory - it is normally there with a normal Solaris install. Possibly it has the wrong permissions:
% ls -ld /cdrom
drwxr-xr-x 3 root nobody 512 Jul 2 2001 /cdrom
