HI
Installation with 15.0- BETA3 solves issue with missing
REPO dir and REPO definintion.
Its now possible to install Xorg, Gnome packages from the DVD.
BUT:
KDE packages are missing from Bete 3 DVD and Beta3 DVD
is only 4 GB large, with 700 MB potentially free/ not used.
regards

I downloaded the 15.0-Beta2-amd64-DVD1.iso
I attempted to install the supplied X11/KDE/GNOME packages
supplied on the DVD in the DVD: ./packages directory.
But the DVD:./packages/repos directory and the
DVD:./ packages/repos/FreeBSD_install_cdrom.conf file is missing .
PLS advise is this is intentional and there is a new
method to install packages off the DVD .
Not intentional. We shipped the packages but forgot the config file. It
should be fixed in BETA3. (Patch is here:
