Before you can build from ports, you need to have ports tree in place, the standard way to do this is by running portsnap.
with the caveat that, at least in my recent experience, an
up-to-date ports tree does not always play nicely with a
not-updated base install from CD.  OP might be better off
loading the ports collection from the same CD set as the
rest of the system.

That's very interesting. However, the ports tree on the CD isn't complete, as in: not all the ports are there. I stopped installing the ports tree from the install CD a long time ago for that reason.
