In the above context, there are 2 things I have not been able to figure=20 out : 1) If I forgot to choose the src distribution at installation time, can=20 I install the src.txz tarball by hand myself later from the installation=20 media ? 2) Is it possible to create a pristine FreeBSD environment by hand on a=20 new (MBR+UFS) slice using the tarballs on the installation media ? If=20 this is possible, can you be kind enough to list the strategy=20 outline/steps ? Thanks again for help. Manish Jain
