KDE4 Install

hi guys,

i know maybe its annoying question, but ive read some installation guides n forums, but i still cant install kde4 on freebsd. i just installed freebsd n updated port using cvsup then tried to install kde4. im totally newbie here. but i really want to learn freebsd. can anybody give me a detailed installation info? i can even install fresh freebsd 7.0 release again to follow all u say. please help me...
 
Here you go:

Code:
/usr/ports/x11/kde4
make install clean distclean

If you run into problems, and want us to help, you need to let us know what those problems are.

thank u very much for such a quick reply!
i tried to build from ports before, like
cd /usr/ports/x11/kde4 && make install clean

but i got some problems of dependencies. then i quited kde4 installation process n tried to install that dependencies by myself. then run kde4 installation again. then again some dependecy problems. n installing from ports took very long time even i didnt success. can i install it from packages? now ill run installation again n ill post here the problems would occur.
 
There are no KDE4 packages for FreeBSD 7.0, so if you are using 7.0 you should build from ports. If you run into problems, we would need to know the error messages you received.

There appear to be kde4 packages prepared for the 7.1 release.

:( i ran out the free space
heres the output of kde4 installation

i think its because of performing kde4 install lots of times :(

hey mate, can i ask u another question?
is it possible not to get any errors if install freebsd 7.0 release from strach n run make install clean distclean? i think maybe i did lots of mistakes after installing filesystem.
 
i got the issue;)
before i ran only clean without distclean, thats why distfiles my the system full
now i ran make distclean on /usr/ports/x11/kde4 and /usr/ports/x11
so now i have 10 GB of free space, n started runing kde install again like u said. i will post the result asap.
thanks mate!
 
Sorry, was a little short.

20GB is not enough for:
- compiling a giant meta port like that in one shot
- having /usr/ports on the same partition
- the port installing to the same partition
- the distfiles downloading to the same partition.

Additionally, you don't have a /home so home dirs are on /usr/home as well. Doesn't leave much for the desktop use, even after the compilation is cleaned.
