I'm not sure I understand.  If one checks-out all of
http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog, cd's to
http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog/image, runs
buildsqueaktrunkimage.sh, and starts up the CogVMMaker image, then the
paths /are/ already set up.  All you need to do is run one of the
configurations and it'll default to looking for platformes in ../platforms
and outputting generated sources to one of the source directories in ..,
e.g. ../src
