You're installed and running!  Now you can add applications via
/stand/sysinstall or going to the ports tree (if you installed it) and
having it build them for you!  

The "type /stand/sysinstall" is the MOTD (message of the day) - you can
find it in /etc/motd and change it if you like (you'll need to be root).  

Enjoy!  If you have more questions, ask away.

Brett
