Well... It's no problem to download if you have a 24h, highspeed connection. Leave it downloading for 2 days. :-) But, I thought of something else, though. Why not make a target (I'm not sure there isn't one. Is there?) "image", so you could do "make image", and have one created with all the source, binaries, and ports (plus the distfiles you happen to have downloaded in post/distfiles) into your own release as a ready to burn image? Just a random idea... Take it or leave it :-) /Mikael
