Hi Everyone, I couldn't find this anywhere. Is there any way to index the CDs in the Powerpak version of FreeBSD? What I mean is, if I go to /usr/ports and make something it checks my cdrom drive for the dist files and if it doesn't find it on the CD currently loaded it checks the Internet. Is there a way to configure the ports system to know which CDs certain distfiles are located on? The only thing I can compare this too is Debian's apt-cdrom. apt-cdrom will index all CDs so that if you try to apt-get something it will tell you which CD to insert.
