There is no major desktop running on the OS, such as KDE/Gnome/Xfce, as well as some other necessary applications. I'll erase the OS soon to make another installation with new partitions arrangement. On the 2nd round I'll also make the same installation. Please advise after installation completed how to read on CVS on the website to fetch fresh ports and src tree that I need installing further packages and updating the system. Also how to read about its package management and how to startup. I expect first to update the system before doing any further installations and/or customizations. Pointers would be appreciated.
