Install the CDROM into the drive. Set the BIOS to BOOT FROM CDROM FIRST... Restart the machine... you will then be given a nice menu driven installation. As a reference the "COMPLETE FREEBSD" book available both online at freebsd.org if I am not mistake and in book stores/amazon explain the entire installation in very good detail and it is a great reference to have for FreeBSD administration in general.
