Install cvsup. Create a cvsup file to fetch the entire source tree.
cvsup your source tree.

Ok, I'll try that tomorrow after som sleep and some animating. If you
could explain it a bit more I would be happy-happy ^^

Check out
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html and
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html
note: you probably don't want cutting edge, but that's where the
general procedure for cvsupping and compiling your system is.
When i try to download and install a cvsup-package it says
pkg_add -r cvsup
Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/cvsup.tbz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/cvsup.tbz'
by URL
It seems like I can't connect to the ftp from there either. I can
however download the files using my opera-browser. Where should I put
it to make it work? Now when I just tried putting it in my
user-catalogue this is what was said:
It looks like you're running FreeBSD 5.3. Trying to get the latest
source may be more than you want to get into at this time (though you
should do it soon). If you have your FreeBSD 5.3 cds around still, you
can get the source by doing the following:
* login as root or su -
* run sysinstall
* Select 'configure' -> 'distributions' -> 'src' -> 'all' -> 'cd/dvd'
If you don't have the install cds you'll probably have to upgrade to
FreeBSD 5.4. In that case....

/Linnea
I don't use packages, I use the ports system
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html).
Maybe this is pkg_add's way of saying that cvsup is already installed?
What doesn pkg_info cvsup\* tell you? How about the command "which
cvsup"? If you get output from both of these commands you already have
cvsup and can go about following the links I sent earlier to get the
source and upgrade your system.
HTH,
Micah
