How to install additional packages for OpenIndiana?
I've installed the OpenIndiana Version 151a8 (with desktop) as a guest VM in my VMware Fusion today. The popular tool lsblk is not there, and the pkg install needs additional info to find it (path? version?).
How can I find out this additional info for the lsblk tool, and generally - for any other additional piece of software I'll need?

Solaris/SunOS had already other tools to achieve similar purpose as lsblk which is specific to Linux.
To simply display block devices:
iostat -En
You can also find extensive information about your system using kstat.
For instance:
kstat -c disk
will give you statistics about disks and filesystems.
As for package repositories they are listed here:
http://www.openindiana.org/packages/
You are welcome to ask further questions on the opendiana-discuss mailing-list.
Good luck !
