I have no directory /var/ports nor /BETA1/var/ports. My PORTSDIR is /BETA1/usr/ports because I kept this location from FreeBSD 9.0-BETA1 after installing BETA2 in another GPT partition. My distfiles directory is ?BETA1/usr/ports/distfiles . But a portsnap run should not download distfiles. Distfiles are downloaded when you build a port.
