this is a sore point with me I have twice paid good money for a cdrom
"TurboFreeBSD" from Pacific HiTech through Dymocks in Sydney, Australia.
The version is 2.1.5 allegedly the latest.
Firstly I get a message that the CDrom is not authentic, but proceeded
anyway and am thus this far
Secondly, there are no ports, just a message saying that these are now
on a second cdrom, which however is not wrapped in the package? I cannot
find any other cdrom source in Sydney.
Thus I must rely on downloading



 Otherwise, you can download it from

ok I will do this. then should I proceed as if i got the port from the
cdrom? as you show below?
