You can ensure that only the local repository is contacted by unchecking the box
[ ] Contact all update sites during install to find required software

I don't know about the first part of the problem but you should probably open a bug with this description.

Simple test case
Unzip 3.5
Launch admin
.\eclipse.exe -data ..\admin\admin1\workspace -debug -console -vm "C:\Program Files\IBM\Java60\jre\bin\classic\jvm.dll" 
shutdown
Launch user
.\eclipse.exe -data "..\user\user1\workspace" -configuration "..\user\user1\configuration" -debug -console -vm "C:\Program Files\IBM\Java60\jre\bin\classic\jvm.dll" 
shutdown

What I notice is that the shared profile has roaming set to true.
The user profile has roaming set to false.

I then startup the admin and provision HelloWorld using the p2 UI
shutdown
Start up user1 and yes it has HelloWorld but the user profile is still set to roaming false.

This seems like an error.

The other thing that I notice is that the p2 UI takes an inordinate amount of time to calculate dependencies for a simple local repository. It actually puts up a message box stating that it is calculating requirements and dependencies. _______________________________________________
