    Hi,

    > documentation on this.

    Just download the ISOs to your hard drive and burn them with a CD burning
    program, for example Nero Burning Rom (choose "Burn Image") or Easy CD
    Creator. Take a look to paragraph #7 of this document for more details :
    http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/binaries/singleinstructions.html

    > After I burn all the CD-Roms how do I create a boot floppy?

    You don't need a boot disk : just press "STOP+A" when your sparc station is
    starting. The boot process should stop and the last line on the screen should
    be "ok". Then insert the first CD and type "boot cdrom". There the system
    should restart and boot on the CD-ROM. Then just follow the installation
    process.
     
    I hope this helps.

    Dear SuSe-Sparc Newgroup,

    How do you download the .iso files to CD-Roms, I can't find any
    documentation on this. Is there anything special you have to do. I would
    have to download them in Windows 2000. After I burn all the CD-Roms how
    do I create a boot floppy? Also, could you please suggest some sites
    with information on running SuSe on Sparcs.

    Thanks,
    Michael
