I have only installed Solaris once about 2 years ago. I have an 1125 that already has Solaris 7 but i want to blow it away and just install Solaris 8. I have an external CD attached and i type boot cdrom at the OK prompt but it says cannot open boot device enter filename [cd]:
Am i doing something wrong. I have tried dozens of cd's thinking that it may be the cd itself. Please help. I am truly a newbie.
