I have just installed FreeBSD using the FTP option. 
I did not choose (unintentionally) to install the 
source code. I would like to recompile to kernel, 
but I do not have the source to do so. I have read 
the appropriate sections in the handbook but there 
are no specific steps listed about how to download 
the source code.  Any help will be appreicated.
