I was only able to install some of the distributions that I want for
2.0.5R, because of little available FAT-disk space (I have an IDE
CD-Rom but don't want to fool with the driver right now).

How do I install the rest of the distributions I missed the first
time?  For example, I want the SRC & XF86311.  I have them copied to
my DOS disk, but I can't figure out the program to run while in
FreeBSD to install them.  Both 'install' and 'pkg_add' don't seem to
do anything.  When I go through the boot disk installation again, it
complains that I need to re-partition (but I don't really think I
should have to do that).

Thanks in advance for your help!
