Hi there, i'm still using teTeX port and i'm desperate to upgrade to
something more up-to-date and so made a first attempt yesterday to install
your binaries but somehow got it wrong, or at least it didn't appear to
work for me.
I extracted them into /usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/i386-freebsd7/ and
updated my path, which is how I understood it needed to be done from
reading the README.txt; however, this did not work for me.
I wonder, would you be able to help by explaining the steps needed to
install them properly? up-to-now i've only ever used ports to install
software and i'm not familiar with installing binaries on FreeBSD

Dear all,

These binary packs are for people who want to use official TeXLive
distribution without compiling. (As you all know, TeXLive-2009 was
released without FreeBSD binaries; hopefully, this will be changed
for TL2010).
If you encounter problems running these binaries, don't hesitate to
write to me and/or to the TeXLive mailing list.
Romain Tartière's excellent freebsd-texlive project
(http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/) provides you a way to use
TeXLive distribution in the form of FreeBSD ports -- Romain, thanks for
everything you have done so far! So if you want _integrated_ install
(TeXLive fully integrated with the rest of Ports Collection), please
refer to Romain's work.
