FreeBSD on SSD on ASUS P5KPL-C

[Leslie Jensen]

Thank you very much for your work on this. I have found this 
conversation and your article very informative.

I've already installed W7 on my SSD but I let the installation program 
create the windows (MBR) partition.

I'm going to install FreeBSD 9.1 as soon as it is ready so I want to ask 
if it is straight forward if I follow your instructions for creating the 
bsd slice and partitions, or if I need to check anything in order to get 
the correct alignment?

Thanks

/Leslie
