FWIW I could not partition using the FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 install DVD. I
partitioned with the PcBSDÂ 8.2 DVD and then tried to install from 9.0, but it
anyway caused partitioning issues.
After that I partitioned using FreeBSD 8.3, installed 8.3 and then updated to
9.1.

I was always under the impression that partition 3 was not to be touched as the

I was mostly concerned with installing MBR so it would still be compatible with
sysinstall, although I can't really think of a terribly good reason not

No, that is regarding traditional partitioning. But it's
