That is just a tarbal of the port tree. You need it to update the ports 
or check for the current version but it isn't the packages or source. 
You need them to do a real install.

You need an iso of the OS that you can burn onto a CD or DVD. Then, you 
can use it to install everything.

The ISOs are in ftp://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386. The 
5.4 disc-1 iso is 537 MB and downloading that in cu-land can take 
awhile. A CD via DHL may be a lot faster :). The port tarbal will also 
be on the iso.

There is also an espaƱol list at
