Swapping DVD between V40z and V20z
Hello
Recently we bought a new V40z and a new V20z. One to run Windows(40) (boo! <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_smile.gif" border=0 alt="Smile"> ) and one to run Solaris(20)
However, the V20z only came with a CDROM drive and I only have the latest version of Solaris 9 on DVD. The V40z however came with a DVD drive and I had Windows media on CDROM
So, out came the screwdriver and a quick swap over later, you wouldn't even know I had swapped the drives
The V40z went rocking through with the CDROM drive and is now running Windows
However, the V20z refuses to even acknowledge the DVD-ROM's drive existence which is giving me a slight problem when installing Solaris
To me, what I've done is nothing special, but is there any reason why the V20z can't use a DVD-ROM drive? or is the one from the V40z different and only works in a V40z?
Pretty sure cables are in properly (annoying little basket connections) and the green light flashes at the front when it powers up
Anyone else seen this or can help?
