Author: bcr Date: Mon Jun 11 14:59:39 2012 New Revision: 39025 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/39025 Log: The description about installing the system sources are no longer accurate in newer FreeBSD versions, since sysinstall is not there anymore. Therefore, provide a more general way that fits both cases by refering to the section in the handbook about synching the system sources.
