    Hi,

    I have four Sun Blade 100 that will not boot from their CD-ROMs. I've tried CDs from Sun with Solaris 8 and 9 and CDs with Solaris 10 and FreeBSD that I've burnt myself (using different medias). The machines are a couple of years old, but their CD-ROMs has almost never, ever been used.
    So I'm wondering if this is a common problem for these machines. Especially since I replaced the CD-ROM drive in on of the machines and it booted directly regardless of what I tried.

    Carl
