    Hello Sun Gurus,

    We have SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R and /kernel was corrupted during the
    restore it overwrite the / partition. We tried to boot it from CDrom
    inorder to recover but it gave us the output below. The system could
    not even recognize any commands. How could we boot the system to
    recognize the cdrom so we can restore /kernel. Pls advise.... Our
    last resort is to rebuit via our jumpstart.

    ok boot cdrom -s
