Hi again,
Installing programs with Ports and ftp doesn't work properly to me.
I wish to redirect the target from /usr/local to e.g. /opt.
Installing with /stand/sysinstall from the CD seems to work alright.
Installing from /usr/ports/xxxx doesn't find /cdrom. /cdrom is mounted.
I've even tried to cd to the proper directory.
But make install in /usr/ports/xxx seems not to find any of the tarballs.
Q1: Is it possible to redirect the /stand/sysinstall from the CD somehow.
CD-installing works alright, but I want to redirect it.
Q2: An idiot-question?
How do I install a tarball? Wich commands? I don't mean tar etc.
I mean the install commands to compile etc. "Installing by hand".
I've done this in Linux. Is it (exactly?) the same?
Cheers,
Thomas
