How to make Solaris 10 Operating System 11/06 CD install onto a PC

807559Aug 23 2008 — edited Aug 24 2008

I have the Solaris 10 Operating System 11/06 CDs from Sun.
I am now trying to install the O/S onto a new internal HDD.
Powering up with the first CD (03-104927-01) in the drive, the monitor reports "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER".
Is not the CD a system disk?
How do I install Solaris from the CDs?

Additional information:
BIOS Setup information:
IDE Channel 0 Master - HDD
IDE Channel 4 Slave - DVD

Thanks for the help
