Please, calm down a bit,

The original poster only revert to a "modern' install, who knows what he 
ment by this. Perhaps he doesn't want to specify what the partioning 
would look like himself, unless he prefered to do it otherwise. The idea 
that he insist on a graphicals installation is implied by the reactions, 
not by the original poster. Personally I wouldn't mind if an additional 
install cd is available with a nice graphical interface. As long as the 
original, text mode / sysinstall is available as _default_, I dont't 
care if  there is a 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/7.1/7.1-RELEASE-GUI-i386-disc1.iso 
sponsored by
Fritz Kolberg  [ and yes, he insist on paying for something which is free ]
