    Nope..it's he same as I have...

    And also I was able to boot from any CD...SuSE 7.3, Debian 3.0
    as also downloaded Solaris 8/9 CDs.

    I just had to burn them on a PC with Easy CD creator..
    They weren't bootable burned on a Mac with Toast.

    ok. So I don't need a 'special' image for sunblade 100, do I? the image for
    7.3 (for sparc) should work.
    and (I hope!!) I also don't have to compile my own kernel (don't even know
    how....)

    but it makes me wonder, why I can boot a sparc 20 and also an ultra 10 from
    the same CD's...
    they seem to be bootable (burnt them with cdrecord on solaris).
    but nevertheless I think it's worth to try another program.

    Before I start further investigation I will try with Easy CD creator on my
    PC.

    thank you for spending your time on this.

    regards,

    Peter.
