I think that your first method should work corectly.
In documentation everything is exactly like you did (old firmware version 1.2)
Code:
# ldm add-vdsdev /export/images/sol-10-u5-ga-sparc-dvd.iso dvd-iso@primary-vds0
# ldm stop-domain ldom1
# ldm add-vdisk s10-dvd dvd-iso@primary-vds0 ldom1
# ldm start-domain ldom1

I have never used ISO to install ldom but maybe it didn't work because you add iso file to more than one ldom.
I remember that a few years ago, when I was instaling ldoms, I had to add cd/dvd with "read only" options, when I was added it to more than one ldoms, although there was nothing about that in documentation.
It was something like this:
Code:
# ldm add-vdsdev options=ro /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2 dvd1@primary-vds0
# ldm add-vdisk dvd dvd1@primary-vds0 ldom1
# ldm bind-domain ldom1
# ldm start-domain ldom1

I think it's worth to try, just for exercise.

ldm

LDM2(1) 																   LDM2(1)

NAME

       ldm - a display manager for LTSP

SYNOPSIS

       ldm <vt[1-N]> <:[0-N]>

DESCRIPTION

       ldm(1)  starts an X server and presents the user with a login screen, similar to the gdm(1) login prompt. instead of using the XDMCP proto-
       col, ldm(1) uses ssh(1) connect to remote servers, then starts an Xsession either via ssh(1) X forwarding, or direct TCP/IP connection.

       It was designed for the LTSP project, but could be used in a non-ltsp environment as well.

OPTIONS

       <vt[1-N]>
	   tty where ldm will run

       <:[0-N]>
	   X display that ldm uses.
