You are saying that "I am reaching for the  'Login / Password'  screen ." .

This means that installation is completed successfully .

Unfortunately , within the Handbook :

https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/
FreeBSD Handbook

I could not find any information about how to login to the starting FreeBSD
.

In the following manual  pages ,

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi
FreeBSD Manual Pages


( Please be careful about the phrase in the box  and in the URL of the
page  which should be
"manpath=FreeBSD+13.0-RELEASE+and+Ports"
conforming to the your FreeBSD version . )
)


 write

login

to the empty box at the left of  the "man" box and press enter .


You will see

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=login&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+13.0-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html

LOGIN(1)	

Please , proceed from this page ...




My knowledge is so much to help you .


With my best wishes for all humanity ...
