Solaris installation error

[Pin2]

I am trying to install Solaris on a formated system. The harddrive has not partitions on it right now.

I keep getting this error message when I am trying to select the location to install the boot kernal.

Here is the error message:

Unable to mount a Solaris root file system from the device.
Error Message from mount
/pci@0.0/pci-ide@1/ide@0/ cmdk@0.0:a: can't open - NO VTOC

Any suggestion to work around this problem?
Also what kind of partition should I have in order to install Solaris?

Thanks
Pintu

Are you sure the disc is ok and that the drive can read the disc?
