# what you mean by "partitioning"? fdisk? this is not required at all,
# unless you plan to have some non-FreeBSD filesystems on them.
Are you _really_ sure?
# Just make a /etc/disktab entry (read the beginning of the file for format).
# read the man page for disklabel. Understand it. Look at your existing
# label. Plan your layout (a: for root, b: for swap, e: for /usr - this
# is for normal disk, you can make other but remember b: is always swap
# and c: is entire slice and d: is not used now.)
#
# then disklabel -w -B sd1 your-disk-type
# (assuming your new disk is sd1).
#
# run disklabel sd1 to verify. run disklabel -e sd0 to fix it if necessary.

sd1, for sure
[... no additions, that's all right ...]
