I need it stated explicitly that the install creates a slice for FreeBSD and 
does not attempt to write over my present OS and data and apps. I'm sitting 
here with my image disks but I don't dare run them because I don't know what 
will happen to my sytem. I don't dare guess. Your handbook states that the 
install does everything,  but it doesn't say what that everything is. Your 
everything and mine may not be the same. You need to more explicitly state 
what the install does. Do I need to run a disk partitioning program first? 
That's my confusion.
