I took this directly from the newbie section:

"Place your FreeBSD CDROM in the drive. Mount it on /cdrom. (If you use a
different mount point, the install will not work.) To begin, change to the
directory for the port you want to install:"

I mounted but I am sure I am doing it wrong? My /cdrom is off the root? Is
this correct. It doesn't say where to mount it from. :(
