Your CD should look like ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/x.x.x-RELEASE/ where
x.x.x is the desired version.  

You should have the following files on that CD:

FreeBSD File Requirements:
  
REQUIRED:
        floppies/boot.flp (boot floppy image)
        tools/fdimage.exe (DOS bootfloppy image writer)
        bin/*
 
RECOMMENDED:
        manpages/
        compat*/
        doc/    (at your discretion)
        src/ssys.*

Make sure you match the directory layout.  You can add other distributions
as you like, assuming you can fit them.  I'd suggest saving the packages
tree for a separate CD, yes it's that big.
