So I installed amd64 9.0 tonight and decided against installing "ports". I'm at a point now where I'm thinking about adding it and I see sysinstall: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ports-using.html Looks easy.
For some unknown reason sysinstall spits the following: Warning: The disc currently in the drive is either not a FreeBSD disc or it is an older (pre 1.2.5) FreeBSD CD which does not have a version number on it. Do you wish to use this disc anyway? Like any sane person who burned this CD a few hours previously on the same machine from within FreeBSD and then installed from it shortly afterwards I click "Yes" ... So that doesn't work. I wonder what would have happened if I had elected to install "ports" during the initial install ... I'm here if anyone's bothered and wants more information. Best wishes. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
