You can either burn it on a cd-r, or if you have enough disk space, copy
it to some location for either an NFS or FTP installation (using the
"loop" mount).

You can boot an SS10 using either the CD, floppy (using the fixed floppy
from the updates available via ftp) or over the network (tftp & rarp).
With the CD method, you just do a Stop-A at boot-time to go to the PROM
ok prompt, then (if your CD is properly set at SCSI target 6) you do a
"boot cdrom" and that should be all you need.
