Hi,

make ones system as clean as a fresh install? Thanks.

If you have a spare partition on your system, then you can try the
depinguinator:

The depinguinator helps you to create a FreeBSD install image, that has
SSH enabled by default. You can boot into that system and use it as an
install medium for your FreeBSD installation.
