Hi Kumar,
It is a sparc workstation not Intel or AMD. SO there is no concept
of BIOS here.
In sparc environment we have something called OBP (Open Boot Prom). It
is like a command prom which looks like "OK>"
So once you get into this prom, boot thru cdrom using command OK>boot cdrom
Then you should be able to install solaris.
PS: Please note that you need to have Solaris 11 Sparc version to
install solaris on this box.
regards,
Madhu
