	Avoid using sysinstall. Do:

% man moused vidcontrol

	You can also modify moused values in /etc/rc.conf:

% grep mouse /etc/rc.conf
moused_enable="NO"      # Run the mouse daemon.
moused_type="auto"      # See man page for rc.conf(5) for ...
moused_port="/dev/cuaa0" # Set to your mouse port.
moused_flags=""         # Any additional flags to moused.

	Does your mouse work ok with X?
