Hi..

I have 2 very quick questions/comment about installation from the FreeBSD CDs, 
and X-window:

When I try to install the X.org distribution, it sends an error message that 
says it cannot find the packages/INDEX on the specified media. I checked on the 
CD 2, and there it is, the full ports collection, but the index file is named 
INDEX-5 instead of INDEX, so I think it might be the problem.

If someone knows how to install all ports from the CDs, can you tell me to this 
mail, I will be very thankful for it..!

The second question is: when I execute 'Xorg' at the prompt, it starts the 
graphics display, but I have no windows nor desktops, nothing but the mouse 
pointer. Do I have to install something else ? (Maybe from ports collection - 
which one?)

I am relatively new to UNIX, my platform is i386, I downloaded the ISO CD 
images from the ftp site and I burned those images to the CDs (I see the 
files/dirs on the CD, not the ISO file itself)

Thanks!
