Surf to http://freebsd.org. 2. Notice that there are now two flavors of FreeBSD: LATEST RELEASES * Production Release 7.2 * Production (Legacy) Release 6.4 3. Click on 'Documentation' and then 'Handbook'. 4. Scroll down to the table of contents of 'Appendix A. Obtaining FreeBSD' and review these possibilities. I suggest you try CVSup. There are CVSup clients available for virtually all Unixen systems, including Linux. NB. Now, read carefully the section on CVSup: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html You can grab whatever source you want with this method. 5. RTFM! -- Duane
