There's no supported mechanism to do this, and it'll all have to be done more or less by hand. You can pkgrecv the package, stand up a server, and pkgsend the bits to that server. Then copy the server directory to your USB drive, and stand a server up on it on your unconnected machine. (You can obviously do the transfer at any point after the pkgrecv.) The pkgsend will include "open", "include", and "close" subcommands, where you'll include the manifest created by the pkgrecv. The timestamp on the package will be different, but there's nothing in the system that should care about that right now. Danek
