Hi all,

How I can start sun Solaris installation from floppy, because which Solaris CD i have that is not botable, but it has complete sun Solaris 7.99.

Thanks & regards

I'm pretty sure you can't boot from floppy. You will need to boot -s cdrom. If the cdrom doesn't like it, you could try swapping it with one that does - assuming you have another machine that has a compatible cdrom.
