Indeed. Or post to a generic non Sun newsgroup maybe...

cdrecord comes with 10 as well.

To para-quote from the manpage:

"To record a pure CD-ROM at 8x speed, using data from the
file sol-10-u3-ga-sparc-v1.iso:
cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=0,0 sol-10-u3-ga-sparc-v1.iso"

If in doubt about "dev" you could use
cdrecord -scanbus

To check the image there are md5 checksums for each piece
at the download site. openssl can check it for you:
openssl md5 sol-10-u3-ga-sparc-v1.iso

You can still do all the right things but the thing still may not boot
if
the recording media is not recognized by CDROM firmware, but
generally CDs are "better" on older SPARCs than DVD images I find.
