FreeBSD 10 install packages from DVD

[poncho]

Hello,

I already installed FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE but I don't know how install packages from DVD. I don't have internet connection. In version 8.0 I can install kde4 with sysinstall(8) but in this version how can I do that?

Please read the handbook: 5.5. Using pkgng for Binary Package Management

cd /path/to/packages
pkg add ./kde4[...].txz

In case you need to install pkg(7) itself first, you can use this method. Of course you can use the version of pkg(7) that is included (I guess) in the DVD instead of downloading it.

i believe with wired connection more easy

bsdconfig(8) works for me thank you very much @pjdgilmour.

This may be an older thread but other who searches forever will find working commands here! This works for FreeBSD-10.2 for sure.

With DVD in drive:
mkdir -p /dist
mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0 /dist
To view all DVD packages require *pkg update*. Simply install something, and the system will update itself:
env REPOS_DIR=/dist/packages/repos pkg rquery "%n"
Install Something:
env REPOS_DIR=/dist/packages/repos pkg install xorg

Great ! I have been searching for this and I was not able to get a reasonable answer any where. Worked perfectly.
