Is it straight forward ? The main problem is that you have to adjust the partitions to make room for FreeBSD and undoing that is very difficult without backups. FreeBSD goes onto it's own partition (drive letter in DOS-speake) so that means removing part of the existing one. Other than that, you just trash the FreeBSD partition, create a DOS partition, and format it...
