Obtain a CD or DVD image, or a USB stick image, and create
the media as explained in The FreeBSD Handbook. Booting
should not be harder than inserting the media into the
appropriate slot of the machine. :-)

For initializing disks with gpart I found Warren Block's
article very helpful:

http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/disksetup.html

There are also sections covering the topic both in The
FreeBSD Handbook and the FAQ, but this article is a
very good "concentrate".
