Hmmm... It seems you've gone astray in time.  FreeBSD 5.2 has yet to
be released.  See
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/5-roadmap/schedule.html

Perhaps you mean 5.1 ?

You won't find all possible packages on the CD Rom set as there's
simply far too much stuff to fit onto the CDs.

Your best bet is to install the cvsup-without-gui package:

    # pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui

then use cvsup to pull down the latest version of the ports tree and
install via ports.  This will have been updated since 5.1 was
released, in order to take account of updates to the dependent
packages. See:

    http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html

Then:

    # cd /usr/ports/misc/instant-server
    # make install
