Hello Family,

Was installing 5.4 and decided to pick some packages from the
sysinstall menu and found myself being prompted every 2 or 3
packages to take out disk-1 to install disk-2 then take out
disk-1 and install disk-2 etc....

Yes, I've installed ports and will work off that now.

In hindsight it would be nice to have all your selected packages
taken from disk-1 "then" insert disk-2, then your done.

After 19 disk changes I just stopped, now in /usr/ports..

I was wondering if I missed something.

Thanks
