Hi all-
I am trying to boot from a Solaris 10 DVD which I burned from the ISO I d/l from Sun(Oracle). I checked the byte counts of the image on Sun's website and my system and they are the same.
I and using cdrecord from Schilly and burning the DVD like so:
cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 -dao ./10x_u9_910_DVD.iso
I have also tried this command:
cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 -eject ./10x_u9_910_DVD.iso
cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 -sao -eject ./10x_u9_910_DVD.iso
The cksum of the image is: 3586743808
When I boot the system [Ultra24] to install this image I hit the F8 key to pick the DVD to boot off the install DVD. After attempting to read the DVD, the GRUB boot menu appears.
Not quite sure what I am missing.......
Any suggestions appreciated!

Nevermind. I figured this out. I forgot to unzip the file after I downloaded it. A check of the d/l instructions sparked my decaying gray matter to life. :o
