Hello,   

        I had a friend write the 2.1.0-release directory tree and packages
to a cdrom for me, but am having trouble installing.  It says it can't find
any dists files?  I was wondering if there were any other ways to specify
where to  install from or a suggestion on what to use for ufs? I've tried   
/dev/cd0/2.1.0-release, but it doesn't seem to want to look at the cdrom
drive.   
Please send an email as I am trying to get this installed ASAP.        

Thanks,  
Casey
