This is better than your last attempt, but you really need to be
careful with your spelling.  You still have a typo there ('defatul').

I'll get back with a more detailed analysis when I have time, but
about the only real thing I see wrong here is that you're trying to
get it from cvsup.internat.FreeBSD.org, which is really only intended
for crypto software.  They don't have the bandwidth for the complete
system, and I'm not even sure they have it avaialable.  Try a
different site for src-all and doc-all.

In case something *does* go wrong, it would be a good idea to rename
/usr/src and /usr/doc before starting (or at least do a backup).
