Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm just installed 3.1-STABLE on a 133 Pentium with 64M/RAM and no cd. I've been going around in circle trying to install ports. I don't have internet software set up for FreeBSD yet. When I go into a directory for a ported application, and type "make install" it tries to ftp a site it can't get to because it's not online. Is there anyway I can use ports with tarballs I already have saved to my primary DOS partion?? THANX!!
