I downloaded FreeBSD 2.1.5 via FTP and it seems to be running
correctly.  I would like to obtain the correct package which would
allow me to build a custom kernel on my machine.  I am having trouble
finding the  *correct* package, can anyone point me in the right
direction?
Also, do I have do download the package by using FreeBSD?  Or can I
use the install program somehow (I haven't tried using FTP from
FreeBSD directly and I'm not sure I have everything configured
correctly).

ThanQ in advance.
