Help. Am trying to learn =46reeBSD.

I installed =46reeBSD 10.3 from=C2=A0=46reeBSD-10.3-RELEASE-amd64-uefi-dv=
d1.iso. Am reading the handbook and many of the instructions just don=E2=80=
=99t work. Example:

4.4.1.
Says to run =E2=80=9C/usr/sbin/pkg=E2=80=9D.=C2=A0
That returns:
The package management tool is not yet installed on your system.
Do you want to fetch and install it now=3F =5By/N=5D:
I type in =E2=80=9Cy=E2=80=9D, press enter key and that returns:
Bootstrapping pkg from pkg+http://pkg.=46reeBSD.org/=46reeBSD:10:amd64/qu=
arterly, please wait...
pkg: Error fetching http://pkg.=46reeBSD.org/=46reeBSD:10:amd64/quarterly=
/Latest/pkg.txz: No address record
A pre-built version of pkg could not be found for your system.
Consider changing PACKAGESITE or installing it from ports: 'ports-mgmt/pk=
g=E2=80=99.
I have no idea what PACKAGESITE is and running=C2=A0/usr/ports/ports-mgmt=
/pkg: Permission denied
and changing from my username to root returns:=C2=A0Permission denied
If I try running make from=C2=A0/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg, it returns:
=3D=3D=3D> =C2=A0License BSD2CLAUSE accepted by the user
=3D> pkg-1.6.2.tar.xz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
=3D> /usr/ports/distfiles/ is not writable by you; cannot fetch.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg

What am I doing wrong=3F What did I miss in the handbook=3F Or is there s=
omething wrong with either the handbook and/or the DVD install I used=3F

Thank you,
Doug
