I suspect that one of the easier ways to do this (relatively speaking)
would be to remove the disk drive from the laptop and attach that drive
to a different machine (such as a desktop, via an adaptor).

Once FreeBSD is installed on the drive, move it back.

Of course, this presumes that you have such a machine available (even if
only temporarily).

Cheers,
