Is there a specific reason why you are using the 9.3 release
instead of the current 10.1?

Basically, the installation is performed with an installation
media, such as a USB stick or a CD or DVD. The required images
can be downloaded. Once you boot from the installation media,
the installer "bsdinstall" will guide you through the steps
of allocating disk space and installing the OS.

You can find a detailed description in the excellent FreeBSD
documentation:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/

The steps for the installation are covered here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/bsdinstall.html

In case, see the FAQ:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/

If you encounter problems, write to the list. Try to explain
the steps you've already taken and tell about the results.
This way you will receive the most helpful answers.
