When you got to the HD partitioning in the beginning of setup you should have deleted 
the entire disk, then repartitioned it. If you kept the partitioning from your first install the 
setup routine will look in the excisting folders and use what it finds there....

It all goes into the /etc/rc.conf file. Use your editor to make changes if you do not like 
what you find.
