Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 10 install dvd drive boots, but not recoginized by install process Post 302549131 by dude2cool on Sunday 21st of August 2011 08:48:46 PM

The DVD drive you installed, unless it is a SUN/oracle branded DVDROM, the install disc won't have the drivers to talk to it, hence missing from iostat -En. See if you can bag one from ebay, else the other option is to setup a jumpstart environment which is an overkill for just one time/one machine installation.
