I have just a standard X running (not sure what, its ugly with a clock showing the wrong time in the right corner... im sure that doesnt help :P), however want to run Gnome... someone was saying I have to run the ports package or some such to install gnome but this brings me to another problem...

how do I get packages or the ports file from a CD onto my computer, I sadly need to go shopping for an ethernet cable so I can FTP everything but seeing as I dont have one right now all I can do is burn packages I want then copy them to OpenBSD... how?

Thanks for the help on the other two problems tho
