OK..Roll up your sleeves. It’s time to get dirty (not as dirty as installing KDE via ports though). So here we go.
I’m just going to talk about post-installation. Yeah, yeah, I’ll get to the install later. Anyway, the first thing I install is cvsup. You can install this via ports:
# cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup-without-gui && make install cleanI installed cvsup-without-gui because, well, I never actually used just cvsup.
After it installs, it will create a ports-supfile file at
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfileor
/usr/src/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile.Just copy it to your root folder. Then, just change
*default host=CHANGETHIS.FreeBSD.orgto a cvsup server near you. To find a cvsup server near you, just go to
After that, run cvsup:
# /usr/local/bin/cvsup /root/ports-supfileOh yeah, if you are behind a firewall, make sure to open port 5999.
Done!!
