These two will probably converge over time as indiana and Solaris become one (thats the current plan - right?) but it seems to me that THE most important thing here is consistency. I'm pretty sure that's what ubuntu do - the live cd is the same as the install, it just has fewer packages. The *same* packages should be delivered on the live cd as are delivered by the install, we just need to choose that subset.
sure, there is some core which should be the same. In terms of "packages" (some meta sense, not the solaris sense) there should be "indiana" metapackage(s) and "solaris classic" metapackages.
To use the Ubuntu analogy, there's the
"universe" community defined "supported" cannonical commerical support (main) "restricted" - multiverse special device software - restricted
Sorry for repeating restricted in the one word description and the name of a different category .. but that's the way it is.
Clearly the factoring job is more complex where we want to have the traditional Solaris support (which in turn has /usr/ucb and other complexity) as well as /usr/gnu.
But no one ever said it would be easy.
