Dear team, I'm currently installing a new server from scratch with the 4.9-RELEASE CDROM. However, I would rather have to install the base system from the CDROM and all the rest from FTP. Ok, this would work very well (It's my 20th server I install by this way :-), fine), but I would rather pick the packages from the "package-4-stable" repository. Ok, that's right if I do "pkg_add -r ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/.../packages-4-stable/All/the_package.tgz" I will have the right package and all its dependancies fetched from the right place. But what if I (or an another sysadmin) do the install from sysinstall ? It would fetch from 4.9-RELEASE ! Is there any solution for this ? regards Mike m.suzenne@silog.fr
