Windows NT 4.0 and Solaris 8

807559Mar 16 2002 — edited Dec 8 2002

Hello everyone,
I have an Intel Pentium system with Windows NT 4.0 SP 6 and I would like to be able to install Solaris 8 on this system and dual-boot. I have 2 hard disks and I plan to install Solaris on the second one. The installation instruction says insert the "Solaris Installation" CD and boot the system. I tried that with the BIOS option set to boot from my CD but nothing happens and it just boots Windows NT as usual. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? I haven't partitioned the new hard disk yet - I was hoping to get into the Solaris installation first to do it.

Please help.

Thanks
