I have read Chapter 2 of the HandBook, but for me there isn't solution there.
Keep in mind, I haven't: cd device, floppy device, or internet connection during the installation's process.
My problem is the boot.

With linux I can start the installation from HD using only  
the cd's iso image (placed on the HD), the bootloader Grub (already installed), and two files (initrd and kernel) that start the installation  process. 
With linux I can install another linux_Operative_Sistem without  any external devices (cd, floppy, or internet).

For instance, in my file /boot/grub/menu.lst there is these commands

I want do the same thing with FreeBSD.
Remenber I haven't: cd device, floppy device, or internet connection during the installation's process
