Why do you need two freebsd slices? You can put both swap and
filesystems within one slice, you know. I'd suggest you delete the
current wd0s3, and create a slice in the space labelled "X" there, since
it's a lot bigger. I don't think you can have more than four slices.

I wouldn't bother with a separate /var, just ln -s /var /usr/var. Within
wd0s3, you should probably end up with wd0s3a for /, wd0s3b for swap,
and wd0s3e for /usr, and, if you want a separate /var, that will
probably be wd0s3f.
