[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello I used CVSup to update my ports collection it finished without error and from the date stamps it appears to have updated my ports collection. But I tried to install a package from sysinstall I receive this error: Unable to get packages/INDEX file from selected media. This may be because the packages collection is not available on the distribution media you've chosen, most likely an FTP site without the packages collection mirrored. Please verify that your media, or your path to the media, is correct and try again. I get the same error on each of the ftp sites that are available. Any suggestions? thanks for the help -Robb [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello I used CVSup to update my ports collection it finished without error and from the date stamps it appears to have updated my ports collection.
