Subject: Re: setting up /usr/ports/distfiles to fetch from cdrom

Precedence: bulk

You have to mount the CDROM at one directory, say /cdrom
then make a link directory of distfiles directory of cdrom
to /usr/ports/distfiles. Such as:
mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0 /cdrom
ln /cdrom/.../distfiles /usr/ports/distfiles

That's all
