I want to install some ports from my desktop, not from sysinstall. When i go in the xterm shell i type in /cdrom so it mounts the freebsd disk so i can continue on installing my ports, but instead it says permission denied. So i logged in as root and it still says permission Denied. I don;t know what to do to fix this. I want to be able to do quick installs from the cd instead of going into sysinstall all the time. I use Kde as my xwindows.
