I've only used a Sun Blade 150, but I guess yours is IDE too and the most interesting part is nothing under probe-ide. Are the jumpers set correctly, and do you have another IDE DVD-ROM? I used a cheap ol' combo CD-RW/DVD-ROM from home to re-load Solaris 10 on the Blade 150. a JumpStart server might be a good idea.
