Burning "these files" is most certainly not correct. This creates a new iso9660
filesystem and it probably won't be a bootable CD filesystem. And it seems
you've
already lost the uppercase 'S' in "Solaris_11".
You *must* use the cd burning software's "burn cd from cd-image" function.

With linux, it should be as simple as
cdrecord dev=X,Y,Z sol-nv-b19-x86-v1.iso
