I read your post and all kinds of things come to mind.
This is a USB CDROM so "removable media" comes to mind.
If you "rmformat -l" (both with the CDROM connected and disconnected to compare) can you see the device name? eg. c3t0d0 ??
Are you sure the CDROM media is the correct format for SUN?
If you can get a device name then you could try and "mount" that device like you would mount any other filesystem.
Also, try any of the above with volume management turned on and turned off.
Let's see what other replies say.
