What steps should I take ? It is not difficult. Download the NetBSD package to use as a reference/base, and then refer to the FreeBSD Porter's Handbook <http://www.freebsd.org/porters-handbook/>. Some of the files will need to be renamed, and/or modified. I'm not aware of a more automated methodology.
