You won't get a GUI on Hipster if you install from the text install media. In fact you need to run "pkg install mate_install && pkg uninstall mate_install" if you want the GUI after installing Hipster from the text install media. Nevertheless seems OmniOSce the better choice for you if you only run a server and don't need anything that OpenIndiana has to offer.
