Hi folks, FreeBSD 5.2 Release ctm is completely new to me. I found it already installed on my PC # whereis ctm ctm: /usr/sbin/ctm /usr/share/man/man1/ctm.1.gz /usr/src/usr.sbin/ctm I am trying to configure it. I read A.4 Using CTM http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.IS...ndbook/ctm.html but I am still not very clear. Hereinunder are my questions 1) Using CTM for the First Time I haven't had a -RELEASE CD. Where can I download the 'starter delta'. My PC is connected to 3MB broadband. 2) Using CTM in Daily Life # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad4s1a 253678 45854 187530 20% / devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/ad4s1e 253678 4812 228572 2% /tmp /dev/ad4s1f 36354884 4975506 28470988 15% /usr /dev/ad4s1d 253678 59724 173660 26% /var Can I establish 'Empty' to /usr/ where has plenty space??? # mkdir -P /usr/home/ctm/curent_delta # cd /usr/home/ctm/curent_delta # ctm -v -v /path/to/starter_delta/download/folder/src-xxx.* (why it needs double '-v' here ???) 3) After step 2) above, now I have the lastest port tree. I then subscribe a CTM distribution list. What shall I do next? Would the ports tree automatically updated whenever I start the PC? Kindly advise. TIA B.R.
