I believe the solaris cdrom is only bootable for a sparc machine, not an x86. The cdrom should have come with a boot disk, called the Solaris Device Configuration Assistant.

Without access to a solaris machine, I don't think you can make a boot diskette.

Hello There!

If you want, send me an e-mail and I can send you the files to make the boot disk! :-))
