I would like to setup ssh or some other connection method so I can finish installation from another location. I'll admit this is more for fun than anything so I can play around on a computer that is older and I no longer want XP on or I want to make a dual boot...

Anyways is what I am asking possible?
 
I think the best you can do is complete a minimal install, and enable ssh at the end, and then reboot. With no extras it only takes about 10-15min. From there you can ssh in and download the ports tree, etc.
 
Make sure the user you added during install is also a member of the wheel group. That will allow you to su(1) to root.
