in your installation, under partitions (Configure -> PArtitions), create a
slice covering all the freespace. Then in Disklabels, create whatever mounts
u need (or use the default). Use the freebsd boot manager (i think u'll need
to configure it later to boot ur win partition). better go through any docs
u might have.
