The second part is fairly tricky to do, though possible; you have to regenerate the /usr hsfs and put the final iso back together, which is tedious. An easier workaround would be to take the Distro Constructor, modify it slightly to perform the necessary customizations after the packages are laid down, and then build an image using the pkg.opensolaris.org repository. I've had to do more of this than anyone, I'm sure (other than perhaps Moinak ;-), and I would probably go with the latter approach if I had reasonable bandwidth to reach pkg.opensolaris.org.
