Just adding another note.

QUOTE
/usr/src contains a finished
buildworld. /usr/ports contains a recently-updated ports tree.=20

# cd /usr/src
# make installworld DESTDIR=3D/usr/local/poudriere/poudriere-system =
DB_FROM_SRC=3D1
# make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=3D/usr/local/poudriere/poudriere-system =
DB_FROM_SRC=3D1
# make distribution DESTDIR=3D/usr/local/poudriere/poudriere-system =
DB_FROM_SRC=3D1
END QUOTE

In the above, /usr/local/poudriere/poudriere-system/ ends up containing
a finished buildworld, instead of /usr/src/ containing such. ( /usr/src/
was put to use to do the build. )
