  In such case it is good to know that it is still possible to run it
(just like I described in my previous message).

  Yes, of course, I'll do that. The reasons I ran the 'installer' were:
1. I still know too little about DragonFlyBSD configuration (well,
actually, about any *BSD system configuration) and needed a quick start.
2. To see what I can use this installer for.
  Next I surely will start tuning the configuration files step by step.

  I used to build a lot of programs on this machine under GNU/Linux
using the CRUX's ports tree. So it should be quite possible to compile
some software on it (for example, I always used a self-compiled
Transmission torrent-client). And also, somebody pointed out in this
thread that the .tar archive with the pkgsrc tree may not align well
with my current DragonFlyBSD version, or have I misunderstood something?
Anyway, where can I download the archive with the pkgsrc tree?

  Thanks,
    Vladimir
