Description

Check out Drupal 5 to a directory called "drupal5" -- note the use of the -r and -d flags, and the final drupal is not the directory you put it in, but the directory you are getting it from on Drupal.org!

Current model for getting core for Agaric's centrally managed system:

cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal co -r DRUPAL-5-9 -d drupal-5 drupal

And then update to version numbers:

cvs update -r DRUPAL-6-5 -dP

For these commands in use with Piston, see CVS and Piston update notes.

This gets you the dev version of Drupal 5:
cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal co -r DRUPAL-5 -d drupal5 drupal

 
or if you are cool, and not weak :P , you could try this...

cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal co -r DRUPAL-6-2 -d [dir you want it in] drupal
