Angad,

I am not too sure but this should be the one:

You should set the repo server to opensolaris.org and you can download 
the pkgs.

On the command line set:

pkg set-authority=http://opensolaris.org opensolaris.org

then you can use other pkg commands to install pkgs/distros.

Best Regards,
Madhan Kumar
