And if you don't erase it before writing it?

I've used cdburn countless times without generating this error.

I don't think the issue is your DVD writer. I'm facing the same
problem ("Error : The disk you inserted is not Solaris Operating
system CD/DVD") installing on a Dell Optiplex 755 with the original
DVD media (x86) provided by Sun. I just found this thread while
investigating the issue.

I had a similar issue some time ago trying to install from the
original DVD (SPARC) on a Sun Enterprise T5220. The solution was to
download the ISO images for the CD install (instead of DVD) and
install from them.

I will try the same with this x86 install.

Regards,

" downloaded the DVD in two parts, you have to concatenate them into
one ISO before burning it"
That is very strnge becuase Solaris 10 in DVD is one DVD not two .


Any way I tried to download the 5 files for Installing u5 of solaris
10 on PIII. I tried the GRUB command kmdb instead of cdrom but with
installing from CDs the PC totally hang up after issuing the GRUB
kmdb.
Is kmdb command related with installing from DVD ?

Should I gather them with copy /b and copy the ISO file generated to
DVD ???
