I suspect that one of the easier ways to do this (relatively speaking) would be to remove the disk drive from the laptop and attach that drive to a different machine (such as a desktop, via an adaptor). Once FreeBSD is installed on the drive, move it back. Of course, this presumes that you have such a machine available (even if only temporarily).
