solaris pkg publisher from scratch

Exercise : Using the oracle publisher

# pkgrepo create /export/repoSolaris11
# pkgrecv -s http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/ -d /export/repoSolaris11 '*'

when interrupted look in var tmp for the file that holds state
# pkgrecv -c /var/tmp/pkgrecv-fOGaIg \
-s http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/ -d /export/repoSolaris11 '*'

Using an iso file
# cat sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso-a sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso-b > \
sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso
# ls /export/repoSolaris11
sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso

# mount -F hsfs /export/repoSolaris11/sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso /mnt
# ls /mnt
