If you can use Partition Magic, then you will certainly be able to
figure out how to use cuteFTP to get FreeBSD. :)

1) google for cuteftp download.
2) click on link
3) follow instructions on site on how to download and install cuteftp.
4) go to www.freebsd.org/handbook
5) read installation instructions, particularly where to find ftp
images.
6) point cuteftp at images and have at it.
