Oh, great, I did not know.
I have three computers, but the hardware for two of them is
not supported by OI. I can only install OI on third one,
but the WiFi network access is not supported.
So, basically I have to download through Windows or Linux,
but I do not known how to "ftp" or "wget" an update, or
anything which is not available in an ISO, from an IPS ?
I am the maintainer of ntfs-3g. How should I deposit an "IPS
package" on a plain web server I do not control ?
(see http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/openindiana-ntfs-3g.html)
Follow the instructions in the link I provided to use pkgrecv to
generate a .p5p archive on the machine you're using to create the
package:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E21383/pkgcreate.html#gluem
Figuring out how you post a file on a web site you do not control is
your problem to solve - I can't help you there.
