New year = New problem (solaris installation)

Hi guys,
i downloaded the new solaris 10,burned it to a DVD disk and tried to install it, but i always failed during the installation process (I have 3 hard drives, a SATA 320gb, and 2 none Sata hard drives) when i ran the solaris 10 dvd disk. I want to install Solaris to one of the 2 non SATA hard drives. but some how i can't see my other 2 hard drives. does anyone know why? and is it possible to have a dual boot of XP and Solaris. By the way my XP is installed into the SATA hard drive.

Thanks

Yes, this is a common setup.
