by I'm trying to install Solaris 7 on a Toshiba Tecra 8000 with a DVD-ROM. The
Device Configuration Assistant recognizes the Toshiba DVD-ROM and I select
it as the boot device to begin the installation. After selecting the Web
based install, I get a few read failures for the CD-ROM and then the
installation terminates. I know the CD-ROM is good as I can read it from NT
installed on the same machine. I assume the loaded CD-ROM driver can't
handle the DVD device. Any suggestions?
I'm beginning to think loading Solaris 7 on a notebook isn't a good idea. I
just wanted to load it to learn more about Solaris. Was hoping to dual-boot
with NT via System Commander. Any suggestions in this area are also
appreciated.
Thanks
