Installation went smoothly until (using THE COMPLETE FREEBSD by Greg Lehey) I attempted to get source archive (p.96, Chapter 7, "The Ports Collection") to install some software from the CDs. I stumbled into a problem. I followed the steps outlined in the book: 1. mount the cdrom... 2. cd /cdrom/ports/distfiles 3. mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles 4. for i in *; do [enter] In responce I get the messages: for: Command not found do: Command not found Where can I find and install these commands on my system? Thanks for reading this, if I don't solve this problem I won't be able to run any applications (make/make install don't work, and I don't have PPP connection yet).
