The neater way

     # script /path/to/usbstick/logfile
     # gpart show ada0
     # gpart add -t freebsd -i1 ada0
     # gpart show ada0
     # <CTRL+D>

Then /path/to/usbstick/logfile will contain a full log of your commands and 
output showing the partition information for ada0 before and after creating 
the new partition.
