It's not one or two questions, but if what you want is to simply install OpenSolaris 2008.11 RC 1B: http://www.genunix.org/distributions/indiana/osol-0811-101a-rc1b-global.iso on a system, using the whole disk, I'm sure you can stay on the phone with the installer, helping them answer the small number of questions about the timezone, Country, etc. You should be able to hang up once the install starts.
