Installing Solaris 10 on Ultra 10

Hi all,

I'm having trouble booting an Ultra 10 off of a burned copy of Solaris
10. I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong. I burn the CD image, I put
the CD in the CD ROM drive and a restart the Ultra 10 box. I get no
errors; the box just boots off of the disk and into Solaris 9, which is
already installed.

Is there a trick to this that I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for any help,
