Greetings,

Based on an outline and material provided from Stephen, I've created a
README and cfg_cache for the 2009.06 repository ISO image:

http://cr.opensolaris.org/~swalker/README

The rsync command probably deserves a note that "/mnt/repo" and
"/mnt/repo/" are different to rsync.  This is most likely to bite
people that use tab completion as they type commands.  According to
rsync(1):

    A trailing slash on the  source  changes  this  behavior  to
    avoid creating an additional directory level at the destina-
    tion.  You can think of a trailing / on a source as  meaning
    "copy  the  contents  of this directory" as opposed to "copy
    the directory by name", but in both cases the attributes  of
    the  containing  directory are transferred to the containing
    directory on the destination. ...


Right, I just didn't think to add a warning.

Thanks,
