As I understand there's only _ports_ at FreeBSD CD-ROM. And all the tarballs you should download from Internet, isn't it? Of course, there's a number of packages included in CD-ROM. But the most part of all those 12 thousands ports requires to download corresponding tarballs from Internet first. Of course, it is good idea to place tarballs in /usr/ports/distfiles (Item 2.) But anyway you should download them first from Internet. So there's no way to avoid Item 1. Am I wrong? // Sorry if I missunderstand something, I'm a real newbie. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-newbies To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
