All you need is the first disc, 4.6.2-disc1.iso. The sytem sources and binaries are there, as well as the most common packages and the ports collection, which is a kick-ass compilation of about 7500 third-party application "ports." I just freshly installed 4.6.2 release, the X Windows system (gui) and the Gnome desktop environment, plus some extra apps (multimedia, mail, etc.) using nothing but disc1, so download that iso and have a blast!
