Please do not top post.

There are couple of ways to create a custom FreeBSD CD and you will find
them by simply googling. I have not tried any, but this one looks 
promising:

http://livecd.sourceforge.net/documentos.php

It is available in the ports collection too: /usr/ports/sysutils/livecd

ZFS will be available on FreeBSD 7.
