well i know this has got to be the moist basic question but the
noob is stuck
thanks for the help
Hey Paul,
You would issue: pfexec pkg install <pkgname>
And until you're familiar with OpenSolaris package naming conventions,
you might prefer to use the graphical package manager (System-
>Administration->Package Manager) where you can see/search a list of
available packages, and select which ones to install.
(As an aside, if you're really looking for a Flash package, you won't
find it in the default package repository due to Adobe's licensing
terms. To add the correct repository, follow the instructions at http://pkg.sun.com
, completing the free registration process first if you don't already
have a Sun Online account.)
Cheeri,
Calum.
