trouble installing to sun blade 1500

[Anton Shterenlikht]

I'm new to sun, but have some experiece installing fbsd to
i386, alpha and ia64.

I've sun blade 1500: http://www.sun.com/desktop/workstation/sunblade1500/

I just burned a 8.0 release cd, and tried to boot from it.
I've a keyboard, mouse and screen attached.
I get to OK prompt, type "boot cdrom", but the process
stops after a few seconds with:

	jumping to kernel entry at 0xc0088000.

Then nothing, and the keyboard is not responsive.
I have to force cold reset. On restart the process
repeats.

Am I missing something?
Or maybe the cd didn't burn well?

Also, there seem to be no reset button on the desktop.
Is there a keyboard key or combination to force a reset?

many thanks
