Unfortunatly, I don't have a spare, but FYI any cdrom drive that supports a
512-byte block size (either jumperable or when requested by the host system)
will boot Suns and let you install SunOS/Solaris. Older NECs (maybe newer
ones too, I haven't used any) and Plextor drives of any vintage work great for
this.
