Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 9 Reset Password - boot cdrom -s not working Post 302329553 by seg on Sunday 28th of June 2009 07:53:57 PM

While troubleshooting I find it's useful to disable 'auto-boot?'.

The error, "Cant open boot device " means there could be something wrong with the media drive or the DVD. Double check the DVD in another machine if possible. Your device paths look OK to me.
