|Hi,
| I installed FreeBSD 2.0.5 this way: copied the bindist, info, and man files
|to a dos partition, booted from the floppies, and ran the install.
|
|Now, I'm trying to rebuild the kernel and noticed I have nothing in my /src
|directory.  I heard there is a script that will extract the source from all
|my .aa, .ab, .ac etc files that I still have on my dos partition...does anyone
|know of this?  If not, what is the best way to get the source files (no I do
|not have a CD-ROM drive ;)
|


For version 2.0 there is an extract.sh script in the srcdist dir and also 
in the kerndist dir. I don't see a similar script in the srcdist files for 
2.0.5.
