Installation of Solaris 10 fails at booting kernal

Booting kernal/unix...
SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic 32-bit

Nothing happens for a minute or so, then the following appears.

WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide@7,1/ide@1 (ata1): timeout: abort request, target=0 lun=0
WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide@7,1/ide@1 (ata1): timeout: abort request, target=0 lun=0
WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide@7,1/ide@1 (ata1): timeout: abort request, target=0 lun=0
WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide@7,1/ide@1 (ata1): timeout: abort request, target=0 lun=0

This happens on each of the 4 boot options. I'm booting from a DVD

My PC is a Pentium 3 800 with 256Mb Ram.

Any idea what the cause is?

thanks
