- # echo "ftp://<your favorite mirror>/<path to the DragonFly dir>/packages/DragonFly-2.2/stable" > /etc/settings.conf
+We offer over 7300 pre-built [pkgsrc](http://www.pkgsrc.org) packages for this release. The [pkg_radd(1)](http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=pkg_radd§ion=ANY) utility may be used to download pre-built binary packages. By default this script will query the main package site for a random redirect to one of our mirrors. The path can be overridden by setting BINPKG_SITES in /etc/settings.conf.
