+
+## Prerequisites
+To get to the desktop you need a working internet connection to download pkgsrc and the packages themselves.
+
+## Dealing with pkgsrc
+
+### Installing pkgsrc
+The basic pkgsrc tools are already provided with every DragonFly default installation, but you still have to download the pkgsrc tree to build and install packages.
+
+First choose a mirror next to you which provides a git repo containing the pkgsrc tree, you can find them on the [DragonFly mirrors page](http://www.dragonflybsd.org/mirrors/). Next copy the mirrors adress into the Makefile contained in /usr.
+
+Now execute as root
+ # cd /usr && make pkgsrc-create
+to initally create the pkgsrc tree.
