Note the order of the partitions is not important, at least on paper anyhow. Of 
course there are preferences in sense that it does look nice if freebsd-boot is 
in front. Also, if you do have mirror setup, it is some work, but you can 
re-arrange mirror side partitioning (with usual cautions like having scrub 
done, having backup, having third disk would be helpful).
