My first FBSD slice has ad0s2a /, ad0s2b swap, ad0s2d /var ad0s2e /tmp ad0s2f /home and ad0s2g /usr (I'm doing this from memory since I'm at work) > > In sysinstall, I created a new slice and made the exact same partitions, only they were ad0s3*.

It sounds like you did everything right, yet it still doesn't work! As I mentioned earlier, I *have* gotten STABLE and CURRENT running on the same laptop. I wonder what would have happened if you had booted from the developer release CD instead of running sysinstall on an existing system. I'm afraid I can't offer much more advice :( -jj -- Users of C++ should consider hanging themselves rather than shooting their legs off--it's best not to use C++ simply as a better C.
