The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed: kernel/generic world/base world/lib32 The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed: src/src world/doc world/games Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y Fetching metadata signature for 9.2-RELEASE from update6.freebsd.org... done.

Any suggestions would be appreciated! thanks Paul. -- ------------------------- Paul Macdonald IFDNRG Ltd Web and video hosting ------------------------- t: 0131 5548070 m: 07970339546 e: paul@ifdnrg.com w: http://www.ifdnrg.com ------------------------- IFDNRG 40 Maritime Street Edinburgh EH6 6SA ---------------------------------------------------- High Specification Dedicated Servers from £100.00pm ----------------------------------------------------
