I don't know if FreeBSD supports installing into DOS extended partition.
installing  an OS in a DOS extended partition is dangrous,  it can be
easily rewritten by DOS utils,  if you havn't space to create a partition,
I sugguest you use PQMagic like partition utils to shrink existing
partitions,
then install FreeBSD in new partition.
