What console you are using?

Looks like you are on the wrong console.


Go to EFI and do

EFI> conconfig


Adjust if needed.

Go to EFI and do

console can be set to either serial or VGA.

i beleive you have the MP access. then you can access the EFI Shell and can boot from the DVD.

check which are the boot options under EFI. if the DVD boot option is not listing you can add that with the ' Boot option maintenance menu'
try this.

For using serial as console it should look like this:

Shell> conconfig

CONSOLE CONFIGURATION
