Re: [osol-discuss] Solaris Express repository.

2010-12-15 Thread Mike DeMarco
a little more explanation:

 I have installed Solaris Express b151a onto a Sparc T2000. The install is
 bare bones and I have built a repository on this system from parts a and b
 and have configured the system to look in this repository. Problem here is
 that there is no tools to extract from this repository available to me on
 the systems. I do know how to pkgadd from a package but the repository is
 not built to have packages installed using pkgadd. How do I track down
 dependent package needs.

 How can I install from the repository to sparc hardware with no graphics 
 console. I was able to find the ssh tunnel display problem as no xauth is 
 included with the base build. I have been able to get graphics to display 
 back but there is no packagemanager in /usr/bin. Is there  a text based 
 install tool? How do you install from the repository to sparc based platforms?

You use the text installer to install the system, then pkg install to
install additional packages.

pkg install issue.

  To set clients to use only this depot server to retrieve package content
for the Oracle Solaris Express 2010.11 release, execute the following
command on each client (where origin is the value you provided for
'origins' above):

pkg set-publisher -O origin solaris


on the solaris 11 express package repository the README nolonger includes set 
the origins in the cfg_file. As the cfg_file template is missing from the 
archive I have no way to perform this step. So how is the publisher to be set 
without the cfg_file?

Are there any documents on how to add our own packages to the local repository?

man pkgsend and related man pages.  There's also some docs in
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/pkg/gate/doc/ and of course
the pkg-discuss mailing list archives.
