Hi,

I see that the i386pkg.iso has a very limited number of packages.

Consider that I would like to donwload or require to download a lot of
packages, I do not have a high speed internet connection or no internet
connection, how can I tell a friend to download all the packages?
Are all the packages available as isos? or Is there a location(single
folder) where the whole lot of packages (distfiles or whatever) for
1.6.2 can be downloaded.

FreeBSD offers alot of distfiles, 5-6 versions of the same software in
one directory and it is a huge problem to choose the right package.

Is there any good solution to my problem?

Warm Regards,
