user@solaris:~$ sudo beadm create <new-BE>
user@solaris:~$ sudo beadm mount <new-BE> /mnt
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg install -R /mnt <packages>
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg install -R /mnt <more packages>
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg install -R /mnt <even more packages>
user@solaris:~$ sudo bootadm update-archive -R /mnt
user@solaris:~$ sudo beadm umount <new-BE>
user@solaris:~$ sudo beadm activate <new-BE>
Yes, that seems to be exactly what I have been missing from the man
page. Lookint at the man page again, I was confused by the fact that -R
is not listed for 'install' subcommand. It's probably meant to be
'general' option for all pkg subcommands, but if you are looking for one
specific subcommand and not reading the man page as a book, you will
miss it ...
Unfortunately, I was thinking of bootadm(1M) rather than pkg(1) so the
middle set of commands should be
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg -R install /mnt <packages>
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg -R install /mnt <more packages>
user@solaris:~$ sudo pkg -R install /mnt <even more packages>
