Hi All: Sorry...one more question. :-) I'm trying to find a way to eliminate the step to grab aaallllll the packages for the system when all I really want to do is just change or add a couple packages.
For example, maybe I just want to rebuild SUNWslim-utils or add SUNWgnome-a11y-speech-espeak. From a prior run, something has already pulled all the other packages off my IPS and put them in the package image. Since that takes sooooooooo long, I'd like to avoid repeating that step if I can. So...what I'm looking for is a way to: 1) Populate the package image with everything from the standard IPS files and make a checkpoint. 2) Start with the checkpoint. 3) Create/modify the packages I want to play with. 4) Put my new packages in the package image, removing/replacing old ones if necessary. 5) Build my iso and test. 6) Go back to #2. I could accomplish this, the load on the IPS server would be greatly reduced and I would be able to prototype/test much faster. Is this possible today? I played with checkpointing and it seems to work (yeah!), but I'm not sure how to update the package image without just replacing it entirely. Will
