Thanks all, 

We tried reseating all components and still nothing. Called in SUN, who had
brought a replacement dvd drive just in case, put in an original 10/01 cd
and away it went. It may be my cd burner is making faulty cd's, am testing
that now.  We did try an original 10/01 yesterday and it wouldn't work, but
we we're unable to duplicate the problem when the Sun guys were here. Go
figure.
