According to Peter Radcliffe:

Yes, do not under any circumstances touch the last partition on the drive (the 
one for hibernation). If the PCG-XG9 is close to the Z505SX I have almost
everything will work with FreeBSD (sound and modem depends on what they've
decided to put into this laptop of course).

Apart from sound (which will resolved probably in 4.1 because it is a new
driver) and the modem (which is a winshit thingy and something I don't really
care about), it will work fine.

The PCG-XG9 seems to be a nice machine although it is not within _my_
definition of a _lap_top (too big/heavy).
