If your setup is exotic and complex, I dont think you will ever be able to find a guide. On the other hand, if your setup is simple (eg, PHP+Apache+MySQL, not clustered) then the migration is so simple, you wont even need a guide. Your best bet is to set up a box with FreeBSD, configure it to your liking, install the software you need, and just simply copy over the configuration files, database files and user files over to the FreeBSD box.
