Need help on installation.

Hi All,

Good Morning. I am trying to install solaris 10 in my ultra 10 work station using CD. But i am getting the following error, can anyone helping me on this.

ok boot cdrom - install

Boot device : /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/ide@3/cdrom@2,0:f File and args: - install
Can't read disk label.
Can't open disk label package

Can't open boot device

ok

I have changed the CD(its bootable cd only) too but still getting the same issue. Can someone assist me please.


Thanks,
Gowtham

set auto-boot to false at OBP. reset-all
try again. a quick question, whats the CD release ? I suppose you can't get CDs now. Only DVD image. Can you try burn it again, if it was the method you were doing?
My suggestion, please update your OBP firmware before you start on your OS installation
