I removed eBones and secure from the list.
You only have to change some paths ...

Did you read the FreeBSD handbook ?
Part 4:
Advanced topics
15. Staying current with FreeBSD
15.1. What is FreeBSD-current?
15.2. Who needs FreeBSD-current?
15.3. What is FreeBSD-current NOT?
15.4. Using FreeBSD-current
16. Staying stable with FreeBSD
16.1. What is FreeBSD-stable?
16.2. Who needs FreeBSD-stable?
16.3. Using FreeBSD-stable
I think you'll find some info on that topic there. You only have
to change the supfiles to the format of cvsup ... The cvsup package
has some info on that ... I managed that as well without ``pain in
the ass'' some months ago.
