FreeBSD install

This is going nowhere. I suggest you delete all installed packages
and begin from scratch, doing:

#pkg_delete -a
#mkdir /usr/ports/packages
#pkg_add -rK portmaster
#rehash
#portmaster -Pb xorg
#portmaster -Pb kde4

After that you have to configure X11.

Right, wish I had these details at the start. Anyway, I will do this after it stops downloading. I am getting qt4, perl error 'packages not available'.

Your commands are invalid. I am stuck after deleting all packages.

Is this the IT Crowd or I am brain-dead.

Please be more specific. What do you mean by "...commands are invalid"?

1.

pkg_add -rK portmaster

doesnt work but

pkg_add -r portmaster

works.

2.

#portmaster -Pb xorg
#portmaster -Pb kde4

doesnt work.

I am getting a hang of this.

Thanks to everyone who helped and to those who didn't.

I managed to get sysinstall working. It installed QT3 instead of QT4 while resolving dependencies. How Do I update the components.
