Help ! when attempting (with FreeBSD 2.2.5) to use the command : - # for i in *; do > ln -s $i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done in order to create a symbolic link to the ports on "/cdrom" (as documented in The complete FreeBSD 2nd edition, p.96), I get as far as for i in *; do (RETURN) and the console returns the error:- for: Command not found do: Command not found I have obviously set about this incorrectly but don't know why. Can anybody enlighten me please ? My machine is not currently Interneted so I need to install from the ports CDROM. TIA Chris R.
