Solaris 10 hates me. This is my second DVD, different media, burned
from a fresh download with good md5sums and burned from a completely
different workstation/burner.
Identical result.
{0} ok boot cdrom
Boot device: /pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/disk at 6,0:f File and args:
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device
{0} ok
Popping the DVD into another workstation, it looks to be correct.
Google has helped me to find some other problems (like burning the .iso
file onto the DVD media as a file instead of as an image)
I am finding anecdotal evidence that the DVD-ROM drives in many Sun
boxes can boot fine from CD-R but not from DVD[-|+]R. Has this been
your experience as well?
