The problem IS that you have installed Linux previously. You need to 
clean the first few megabytes of disk space (one or two to be sure). 
Things that have been written by Linux confuse the disklabel editor of 
FreeBSD. I don't remember exactly how I did this, but it has been 
discussed on this list some time ago.
