Manually Installing FreeBSD with ZFS root capable of Boot Environments

Use Case

I want to:

  1. dual boot macOS Sierra and FreeBSD 12-CURRENT (or HardenedBSD 12-CURRENT),
  2. use rEFInd to manage EFI boot selection,
  3. use ZFS for my root disk laid out to support boot environments (via beadm)

The current guided installer only does a full root ZFS install when using the whole disk, which defeats #1 above.

Let's do this

Less talkin' more walkin'...
