Is the box just your playground, or is this part of your job? In the
first case: get ready to screw the system in more than a few ways;
reinstalling is quite easy. :) I'm serious: you can't realistically
expect to sustain the first install.
If the latter is true: you seriously need a spare box to play with
freely in order to learn the system.

you don't download anything, the pkgsrc system should do all that
for you (if I got it right from the pkgsrc documentation... which
you have already read, haven't you?)
