I did not install the ports during the /stand/sysinstall process to create this FBSD system. Some time later I wanted to install a port I got from the internet. I could not install the port because my /usr/port directory tree did not contain any of the files used by the port system. I there a way to get the necessary port system files created with out having to load the complete port system from the install CD? I tried to use /stand/sysinstall to load all the ports, but the load ports collection option only comes during the initial install of FBSD. I can not find a option to load the ports on the post install configuration option. There is a option for the packages but not the ports. How would I go about getting the complete ports section off the install cd after the FBSD system is installed?
