Got the console cable all connected up and got tot he ok prompt.
Typed in boot cdrom and got the following:
ok boot cdrom
Boot device: /pci@8,700000/scsi@6/disk@6,0:f File and args:
ERROR: /packages/deblocker: Last Trap: Corrected ECC Error
Can't read disk label.
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device
ok
Alias shows:
cdrom /pci@8,700000/scsi@6/disk@6,0:f
Any suggestions?
It seems to me that you have an issue with cdrom
or the scsi termination not terminated properly
but i'm not sure please make extra sure
reset-all at the OBP and try again. If failed, try using a different dvd.
I tried the reset-all option. No luck. Tried 4 DVDs, no luck. I'm thinking the DVD Rom is bad. It's a scsi drive and I don't have another.
You are probably right that it is a bad dvd drive. However, check to make sure that alias is pointing to the dvd correctly in case that is the problem. Try "probe-scsi-all" at the OK prompt.
Here's a link with a brief outline of that command.

If you're lucky, maybe your alias is wrong and fixing it will solve your problem.
