[PLUG] Sun Ultra 10, Install Help


I am trying to install Suse 7.3 for Ultra Sparc 10. I downloaded the ISO
for it
(http://carroll.aset.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/suse/suse/sparc64/7.3/iso/suse-sparc-7.3-CD1.iso)
and burned the CD like this:

cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=0,0,0  -data suse-sparc-7.3-CD1.iso

After the burned the CD I put it in the USparc and then gotinto the PROM
(Stop + A) and then entered "boot cdrom", the system resets and gives me
this error:
Can't open boot device

I am stuck here, I read the Suse doc, and it was not helpful. Could it be
that my USparc CD-ROM drive can't read CD-Rs? Is it a certain way that I
need to burn the CD? Or something else?

TIA.
Naresh
