If the intention is to use the EFI system partition at ada0p2, and if 
the operating system at ada0p4 is still bootable, and if you'll not boot 
from the network: you can safely delete unwanted entries.

If Boot0008 is mysterious, you could try activating it (and then 
restarting the computer) to tell whether it's usable in relation to your 
installation of FreeBSD.

Things here are very sparse, enough for FreeBSD to boot:
