If it's the latter, you will need to 'checkout' a copy of the source code somewhere, and then make that. Something like # mkdir /usr/src # cd /usr/src # cvs -d /home/ncvs checkout -r RELENG_2_2 -d . src That last line runs 'cvs', telling it that the file repository is '/home/ncvs', that it should 'checkout' the files, place them in '.', which is the current directory, and that the FreeBSD 'src' module should be retrieved. The version (revision) retrieved is 'RELENG_2_2', which corresponds with -stable. Once the files have been checked out, you can then run 'make world', as detailed in the tutorial.
