* I installed some of the FreeBSD 2.2.7 ports off the 4CD set that I got. I * know that the distfiles are split between 2 CD roms, so I copied the * smaller to my /usr/ports/distfiles directory, and popped the other in and * mounted it under /cdrom. However, some of the packages still insist that * they can't find their .tgz or whatever file. I don't really care about * that. What I do care is that everytime this error message pops up, MAKE * aborts and I have to intervene by deleting the directory of the port that * had problems. What I want to have happen is when i run "make install" in * the /usr/ports directory, I want it to skip anything for which it can't * find the sources for and NOT bail on me. Is there any way to do this, or * at least any way to get it to compile ONLY the ports that I selected to be * installed, or do I have to go about things manually? * --Jeff W. Create a file "/usr/ports/makefile" and put all the ports you want in the SUBDIR list, or use "make -k".
