While setting up a friend's FreeBSD 4.0 machine, we didn't download the ports collection as part of the install process (he's got some wierd thing going with his Win98 partition[1]). I haven't been able to find the tarball on the ftp site or any mention through the FAQ or handbook, could someone post the location of the ports tarball? Chris Johnson cjohnson@wcug.wwu.edu [1] He's paranoid about disk space, and wants /usr/ports on the Win98 partition. It's a shame, because the bare ports tree grows from 70MB to nearly 1.5 GB, due to the 16K FAT32 minimum filesize.
