Booting with "boot cdrom" works fine on my Sun Blade 100. I assume that "TCH"
didn't connect his CD-ROM properly or did not properly set the Master and
Slave jumpers. It may also be possible that the IDE cables are broken.

Basically, he has to perform some hardware troubleshooting to make sure
the CD-ROM is properly connected and configured. There is nothing that
needs to be configured in software to get this working, as far as I know.
