I already installed FreeBSD on my compuer. Now I would like to get the tcsh and emacs added to it. I printed and red the handbook, but it does not say anything about how to install these packages with an unsupported CDROM. I copied the tcsh port and tcsh_6.06 from the disk to my hard drive, Then I mounted the Dos drive and can read it from Unix fine. Also, I get masages like: lndir not found and when I try installing it using pkg_manage or pkg_add, I can not do it. pkg_manage is looking for *.tgz which is not part of the files I copied from CDROM. Can some one give me hint? With highest regards, Babak Sehari
