Don't you have a trusted 3.3-STABLE/3.3-RELEASE machine you can grab them from? I ask because I don't think there's an easy way to avoid sucking down the whole of bin. :-( > Please forgive me if the solution should be obvious, it is my first > try at FreeBSD. Ah, then that's where you've gone wrong. For your first try at FreeBSD, you should probably be trying 3.3-RELEASe or a 3.3 snapshot. The 4.0 branch is still considered the bleeding edge. And as you've discovered, it tends to make you bleed. :-) Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
