solaris 10 installation query

Dear all

I've downloaded Solaris 10 from Sun's website. The Operating system installation files are on 4 CD's. I boot with the first CD and start the installation. Then it reboots and start the installation al over again. If I take the CD out during the 1st reboot, then it cannot continue the installation.

Any ideas?

Thanks
