Unable to Load Solaris Operating System on SPARC Ultra2 Computer.

Symptom

Unable to Load Solaris Operating System on SPARC Ultra2 Computer See Long Description. Version 2.5.1 Rev.11/97 Solaris would stop loading after the load process accessed the Auto-install floppy. The floppy drive was cleaned and operating normally (access LED had activity). HDD was replaced which prompted the Load-From-Cold. CD-ROM drive was working because questions pertaining to time zone, networking, etc would appear and accept input. These questions are extracted from the Solaris CD which is mounted in the CD drive. All replacement drives must be labeled before loading Solaris.
