Well, from one newb to another,
I recently just did something similar to what you want but I only used
the Handbook (@ freebsd.org). I installed using the 5.4 cd, and
selected the "minimal" option when it asked me waht i wanted to
install. then i installed cvsup-without-gui and updated the source
using the tag, RELENG_5_4. tehn rebuilt world and kernel. then you can
cvsup the ports and intall what you want.
hope this helps a little, i found it to work quite well
