As far as I can remember, you could install gnome or kde via # /stand/sysinstall --> configure --> desktop You can select the installation-media you prefer. To get later versions you should upgrade your ports-collection or your complete system. But this can be done easier with a working internet-connection. Have fun. Uli.
