In ICS UNIX they split the some stuff into smaller packages. In ESIX you
have them in the BASE system (First 9 disks). You need to make two dummy
files is /usr/options it get ICS packages to install. The first is
fm.name (File Management) you also should make a kc.name (kernal config).
Just put one line in these files say dummy for VP/ix or something, that way
you dont see gaps when you do a displaypkg.
