Hi, Jason. Just download and use my OpenIndiana VM:

https://ln2.sync.com/dl/486b07610/nrfk9pcp-fa2j7dew-i6dt7t67-arb7iy7n

Save you from most of the trouble.

Note: don't download fbc.patch, I put this here because I wanted to quickly share the file on a forum doesn't support attachment, it's not related to the OpenIndiana VM.
