### Booting the OpenIndiana installer on virtual hardware | ||
|

The most efficient way to boot a virtual machine is to boot directly from the DVD ISO file. | ||
Alternately, you may use host to guest DVD/USB passthrough to boot from physical media. | ||

### Introduction | ||
### Quick Start to IPS | ||
|
||
As a desktop user, you will likely want to enable the `Software Installation` profile for | ||
your user; you can use `sudo` instead of `pfexec` if you are just getting started with | ||
OpenIndiana and are not yet familiar with RBAC (role-based authentication), being sure | ||
to replace `username` with your actual username: | ||
|
||
|
||
``` | ||
sudo usermod -P "Software Installation" username | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Now you can use `pfexec` to execute `pkg install` | ||
|
||
|
||
For instance, you may want to search for the `emacs` editor by running `pkg search -p emacs` | ||
|
||
``` | ||
$ pkg search -p emacs | ||
PACKAGE PUBLISHER | ||
pkg:/developer/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
pkg:/editor/[email protected] openindiana.org | ||
``` | ||
|
||
|
||
Then you can install the one that you like by copying and pasting the FMRI (see more details on that later) into a `pkg install` command: | ||
|
||
|
||
``` | ||
pfexec pkg install pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs/[email protected] | ||
``` | ||
