As far as I know kayak is a tool to setup OmniOS. I do not use. I
download either the OI or OmniOS installer, create a bootable dvd or USB
stick from it and install the OS. When I use the OI text installer the
result is quite identical to a OmniOS default setup.
The installer is kayak on OmniOS. On OpenIndiana it is slim_cd whcih is
the OpenSolaris one.
would this work and gives you the current OI user experience on top of a
stable OmniOS base?
Nope. That would give you a package dependency hell. No package would be
installable, as they are all built against different dependency version.
What you want is to make a OmniOS extra respoitory (git) with GUi
packages. That would factually mean abandoning OI and the Goal of a
General Purpose OS. That would be an acquisition not a merger.
