Hi,

Assuming you have a keyboard attached to the machine, type STOP-a
while booting to get the prom prompt, then type "boot cdrom". This will
work as long as the alias for the cdrom is set up up correctly. If not,
or if I have missed the point of your question, you'd better wait for
someone more expert to answer,

Regards,

Ben Mulvihill

Stop-A is just a «break».

Probably «ctrl-b» would work.

You should just be able to hit Stop-A and then type boot cdrom on most
Sparc 5's.

If your using a PC style keyboard and not a Sun, then I have no idea. :(
