All Thanks to those of you who replied (hike & Eric Deblon). The problem appears to lie with the Perle CS9000 that we are using for console access. It is sending 2 carriage returns, so when the first prompt arrives, the first <CR> answers the prompt, the second <CR> which arrives almost immediately answers the next prompt, skips the newly inserted cd and ejects it. We're now sending a CTRL-M instead and trying to mend the CS9000 as well. Another alternative would be to insert the cd between the 2 <CR>'s, but we're not quite that quick!;o} Thanks - Ian -----Original Message----- From: sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org [mailto:sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org] On Behalf Of Ian Topham Sent: 19 November 2007 13:35 To: sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org Subject: RE: Solaris 10 8_07 iso download disk2 All Further to my earlier post, I have downloaded the iso image multiple times and burned the image to more than one cd, in case there was any corruption in either the download or burn processes. Still getting the same problem! I've also installed the earlier version (6_06) successfully since I had this issue, which hopefully rules out the cd-rom as well. The hardware is an e450, 3GB RAM, 3 x 400MHZ CPU.

I've downloaded the 5 iso images from the Sun site and burned them to cd, booted from cd 1 and gone for the 'complete + oem support' option. When it asks for disk 2, I've inserted it and pressed enter as requested, but the system fails to read it, ejects the cd and prompts for disk2 again. The cd looks fine when viewed on another system, and the label appears to be ok. The reason for the installation at this level is that we have been trying to build a container and zfs, but there appears to be something missing in the earlier release we have (6_06) which we require.
