I installed using the 5.4 cd, and selected the "minimal" option when it asked me waht i wanted to install. then i installed cvsup-without-gui and updated the source using the tag, RELENG_5_4. tehn rebuilt world and kernel. then you can cvsup the ports and intall what you want. hope this helps a little, i found it to work quite well chris
