yes, you installed bash and screen first. Can you try it without? I really try to install X as the first thing after I finished installation. I wonder why you need bash from the ports at that stage? If this still works for you, I will have to install FreeBSD after my return. This will take some weeks. It could even be that my journey will get extended. So, be patient.
