2 GB.

Maybe offtopic.
I remember, that there were serious issues with Sun Enterprise E250 and DVD.
1) Images larger than 2 Gb were not supported by firmware/OBP.
2) Images larger than 3.4 or 4 Gb were not supported by Hitachi DVD.
3) Not sure about DVD-RW support.
4) Swapping another DVD unit did not
In the meantime i've remembered, that i have an IDE DVD-RW and i replaced the
drive. Now it does not eject the Solaris DVD, but i still cannot boot anything
with "boot cdrom".

You were right, DVD+RW is not supported by this drive.
However CD-RW is and still, i cannot boot up neither FreeBSD 11, nor Debian 9.
Any idea why?

If you don't mind the cost of one disc, you could.
If you do mind the cost, you could try to look up what your drive supports.

Yes, it is. It's a DVD+RW. And both the FreeBSD and Debian CD-s i tried to boot
up were CD-RW. Should i try CD-R and DVD-R?

This is a burned DVD yeah?
It could actually be a fairly obscure issue, namely DVD-R vs DVD+R

I've tried to set auto-boot? to false but it's still ejecting my Solaris DVD.
What can cause this?

I put my (commercial) Imperium Galactica 2 CD into the drive and tried to "boot
cdrom". Same result as before.
My drive is a Hitachi GD-7000 DVD-ROM. It should be okay. Should i try it in
another machine?

You really need to make sure the drive can deal with the CDs
Both medium was OK on my x86 Linux box. I tried to run Debian 9 Sparc64 by
"boot cdrom", but also no avail.

Have you verified that the CD-ROM drive actually works properly,
i.e. by testing a known good medium?
