I just decided to try my first non Intel install.

I've got a brand new Sun Blad 1500. I downloaded the 2 
6.1 RELEAS CD's, burned them just like I do X86 ones,
halted teh machine, and typed "boot cdrom" at the ok prompt,
only to be told (very quickly) that the disk was not bootable.

Just to verify the hardware, I inserted the Solaris 10
CD and did a "boot cdrom" Bootedfine off of this.

What am I doing wrong?
