How exactly do I go about burning 2.2.7-release? I burned 2.2.5-release with basically no problems, although I ran into this odd problem. The packages dir has symlinks pointing back to itself, while not a problem if I had a tarball, I tried get .tar.gz and .tar and .tgz to no avail, at least on the ftp3. and ftp4.freebsd.org cd sites. I could try ftp.cdrom.com instead, since they most likely support it... Is there anyway through ftp for me to download these symlinks? (the actual symlink, not the dest of the symlink) And on top of that... the packages of 2.2.7 is ... well huge. How do I go about spanning these two discs? Do i just cut anough cd with the proper dir structure of the freebsd CD but only with the remaining packages? Thanks a lot guys! -Carroll Kong To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
