Sysinstall + CVSup or just CVSup?

Hi,

I've installed FreeBSD 5.3 using the minimum install option, and would 
like to immediately install the ports collection.  What I've done in the 
past is sysinstall via ftp and then CVSup to update.  Is that insane? 
Can I just CVSup and forget about the sysinstall?  Is one method quicker 
than the other?  Maybe there's a better method altogether...

Chris
