Yes I have just put my web site online to sell my FreeBSD Stable 4.9 Release Install guide. An Up to date, Step by Step, How-To, Instructional Guide to Installing FreeBSD from scratch, Specifically written with background information covering the why and how the different components are used together to create an home or small enterprise network for the new-be and inexperienced FreeBSD computer hobbyist. Not an General reference type of document, but an true learning aid containing details unique to the stable version of FreeBSD your installing. After 30 months of answering the same questions over and over again on this questions list, It became apparent that some thing must be wrong with the current documentation that so many people are having problems with it. No matter how many times I read posts from stanch supports of the sysinstall process and the current documentation, their posts can not dispute the statistical facts so apparent in this questions list. Every thing is reference material for the experienced user and not written to the knowledge level appropriate to the first time installer. So I addressed that problem. It may not be appropriate for you, but there are many who it is appropriate for.
