Folks,

I need to build a minimal OpenSolaris system for our appliance. We just need to 
install a GUI on the appliance. Just the command line interface is enough.

I found two articles that list the minimal packages required:

Lessons with OpenSolaris appliance by Jignesh Shah:

Minimal Solaris by Alexander Eremin:
http://alexeremin.blogspot.com/2008/12/minimum-opensolaris-200811-install.html

The list of packages are not exactly the same between the two. I am trying to 
understand the ones that are really needed. However, I cannot find any 
explanation for the packages. For example, what is SUNWcs package? 

There are many such packages that I don't understand. I would appreciate your 
help in pointing me to where I can find a one line summary of each of the 
packages. I did look at pkg.opensolaris.org. However, when you search for 
SUNWcs, you get a ton of hits but none of them matches SUNWcs package directly.

Regards,
Peter
