Obtaining the full 4 CDs?

[Preston Crawford]

The thing is... my understanding (due to something someone else told me) was that the 4 CD set included a great deal of the source for the ports. This is a big draw to me as I was told I could just install all 4 CDs, then whenever a port changed I would just get the changed files via CVS, instead of the whole thing. This would be nice since I'm on a modem. Is there somewhere to download the other CDs in ISO format until I can buy them? I have access to broadband, just not at home.

> Well I just checked at bsdcentral.com, and you can get the 4.9 install disk but it seems that all they have in the four disk sets is 4.8, and 5.1. You may want to contact them and see if you can get a four disk set through them. It's been some time since I have done business with them but in the past they were real good to do business with. If you have a broadband connection it might be the best way just to get the install disk, because then the rest of the system would be all up to date.
