There is no need to create any folder structure in order to install PKGs from USB.

The only condition is that all the PKGs are in the root folder of the USB drive and use the Standard option in the Package Manager to detect them. Also, you can create a "packages" folder on the USB drive and use the Package Directory option in the Package Manager.

Remember: the USB drive must be formated as FAT32 with MBR, and the packages must have the file extension .pkg (lower case). If you want to use another file system, you must use PrepISO.

Here is a tutorial from MrMario:

 
Can be FAT32 alone, without MBR. Just FYI. But cannot be GPT or any other partition table of course.
