Additionally the iSCSI related packages(both initiator and target) are
not in the .iso.
Meta-packages would certainly be helpful. However, if the storage
packages are needed during boot/installation, the problem will arise if
the packages are not in the .iso. Taken the iSCSI boot as an example.
Hopefully at least the initiators(not limited to iscsi) will be added
back to the next opensolaris release.

hi,
I just downloaded and setup the OS.2008.11 .iso in a
virtual-box VM.
SUNWstmf package was not present. i had to run
# pkg install SUNWstmf
to obtain the bits.
stmf was putback in build-90. why isn't the stmf package
in the .iso?
There is a distinction between what's in the iso and what's in the
repostiory. Not every package is installed by default. I guess it might
be time to update some documentation on the project page, etc to make
this clear.
The other thing we've done to make things simpler is to create a few
meta-packages/clusters for NAS and all storage packages. This simplifies
the install for storage type developers. We could potentially provide
more of these in the future.
