I've tried to download and install release 5.0 and encounter
some problem.

The suitation is that I have a rather small hardisk and
the only way I manage to use my modem is thur win9x.

I did not download everything in the pacakages directory, but
rather download them when I want to install the particular software.

I found out that those dependends file have been update so frequently in release, which ends up I've to download all
the dependends files(I've areadly an older version installed) each time I wanted to install a software.

I'm a 100% newbies myself and hope others won't have to repeat
my long route to FreeBSD.
