I just recently switched to FreeBSD and bought a 4 CDROM-set with the official iso-images from a german distributor (www.liniso.de). He claims, that the content is identical with the iso images on the ftp-server. I do belive that because I frequently buy CDs from him and never had any problems. Now I`m suffering a serious disappointment, because the included PACKAGES are only a very small part of what is shown in the packages-tree of the ftp-server. For example kdenetwork, XT and XP and dozens (no apparently hundreds) of packages are only listed as packages on the ftp-server. They are not included in the iso-images and therefore in the 4 cdrom-set. I would have to load them down (with my very slow connection). IS THIS RIGHT OR IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY CD-SET? Thanks for any information ! regards Heiko To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
