But, latter, trying to recompile the kernel because of the mouse I needed sources. I tried to use /stand/sysinstall selecting custom installation and there only kernel sources. Because my CD-ROM is not "BSD compatible" (it is a version of Creative Labs), I tried to install sources as I dir for the system itself via the dos partition, copying before the ssys*.* files to c:\freebsd\src IN THE SAME WAY I did the installation of the system, but it did not worked (file ssys.aa not found). I repeated the process using the directory c:\freebsd\dist\src, then again by using floppies, but always the same. May you help me how to install sources without doing the reinstallation of all from the beginning ? Thank you.
