[-- Attachment #1 --] Try installing stuff using stand/sysinstall The ports are apparently just shells & when you try to install them the system pulls the necessary source from somewhere like ftp://ftp.freebsd.org ----- Original Message ----- From: Luciano Moreira Mattão To: FreeBSD Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2001 2:14 PM Subject: Installing ports from a CDROM Hi, I installed FreeBSD 4.1 onto my computer. I have problems with ports collection. When I change to the directory where the port I want to install live (for example /usr/ports/print/ghostscript6), and I type make install (with FreeBSD's CD mounted on /cdrom), FreeBSD try search the necessary files in the internet and some errors occurs, because I don't have connection with internet in this computer. Somebody knows, what should I do to install applications form FreeBSD's CD?
