Never midn there are some people here who are not natural speakers :-)
Anyway I do not really know if this will help you ut I would try
running /stand/sysinstall -->options --> Media Type option
I do not exactly know if this is only the location that an installation will
be performed from or if it is what you search.

On the other hand you can simply put port files (for example
"samba-3.0.7.tar.gz" for samba3) into /usr/ports/distfiles.
The ports install proces alway looks there first if the file he needs
is already there and if it is uses it.
