If you mean a bootable usb image that you can use to install FreeBSD to 
your machine here are some things that might interest you:

You can get a usb stick installation image from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/8.0/8.0-RELEASE-i386-memstick.img
but you'll probably need to do some reading in the handbook
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/

PCBSD is a ready to go desktop configuration of FreeBSD, you can 
download a USB complete install from
http://www.pcbsd.org/content/view/152/11/

There are also some threads about running FreeBSD on the aspire one, eg
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=449
