Um. You need /var/sadm/pkg and /var/sadm/patch. Those directories are where the system keeps track of what packages and patches are installed. Have been since Solaris 8 at least.
Zones are dead easy. I should email you some of my notes.
About that VirtualBox 10u8 image... don't. Just don't. Sun's default images are awful - and I say that as an avowed Solaris fangirl.
(just for the record, I am typing this on a newish Vaio running OpenSolaris snv_131, with Windows 7 running inside VirtualBox to feed my TurboTax addiction ;)
