Step one: Read the handbook (/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html, online: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/index.html). Start at the chapter: IV. Advanced Topics; 18. The Cutting edge (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cutting-edge.html). This explains (in simple steps) how to get the source to your machine, as well as how to rebuild everything (including X) except E and gnome. For the latter, cd /usr/ports/gnome/gnome/gnome-1.0.53 then make all install clean The former can be installed this way, too, just cd to the E directory first.
