In other words, >> it is not supported. But "Not supported" != "Doesn't work". (!= not >> equal) >> >> The Sunblade 100 is(was?) delivered with 12x and 16x DVD from Pioneer >> (Pioneer DVD-115 and DVD-1165M).

Maybe >> booting from them can be a problem but since Solaris can use them un >> Sunblade 100, it should be able to use it on Ultra 10:s unless there is >> hardware limitation. >> >> But the only way to be sure is to try it. >> >> My guess is that either most DVD:s works or none at all. >> >> BTW, putting a DVD into a Ultra 10 will leave you with an unsupported >> configuration even if it works, but I guess you are aware of that.
