I think dists is on the second CD-ROM in 2.2.1. I haven't read that
book, but you must either mount the second CD-ROM or add the packages
and/or ports by hand after the installation.  That should be covered in
the book.

Support personal, 
		I purchased the FreeBSD book "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg 
Lehey. During the installation I chose to install from an NFS mounted CD-ROM. 
In the book the directions tell you to change directories to "/cd0/dists". On 
the 2.2.1 CD-ROM there is no such directory as "dists".  Could you please tell 
me what directory I need to be in to complete the installation. 
 
 
Regards, Chris...
