Can you give us more information?
What exactly happens after you boot up from the installation CD?
Anything displayed on your screen?
Do you mean the CD spins but nothing displayed on your screen?

I'm assuming you downloaded the ISO image and burnt on CD.
Did you check the md5sum on each CD?

Also, it's possible that your hardware is not supported by Solaris 10 (you are installing Solaris 10, right?) you can download the device detection tool from the sun site (http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/hcts/device_detect.jsp) while you are at there, you can also check HCL.

1- download CD's from sun
2- burn the Cd
3- boot from Cd
4- select solaris
5- after this action the message displayed is
(SUN OS kernel KernelNumber all right reserved to Sun Microsystems)
Mouse cursor Flashing
and stop on this step
for 10 min
for 20 min
for 30 min
and reboot the machine and do the same step
no action done

the same thing

Note:-
try to install this Cd's in vmware the cd's is going correctly

really thanks for your attention

I think some of your device(s) may not be supported by Solaris. Have you checked the HCL or run the detection tool that I posted previously? I strongly recommend you to try them since I don't know the details of your system.

You tried this on the same system or different system?

Dear dellroxy, did you try installing through the remote PC? Any how to from you, i really appreciate.

There is something else that you can check.
When the symptom that you describe happens, i heard that the output is possibly redirected to serial port. if possible, connect a dumb terminal to your serial port and see if the output is actually redirected to there...
