Funnily enough the release announcement said:
disc1, disc2, disc3, livefs, docs: disc1 contains the base FreeBSD
system and a few pre-built packages. disc2 and disc3 contain
more pre-built packages. Those three can be burned to CDROM
sized media and should be all you need to do a normal installation.
livefs contains support for entering into a "livefs" based
rescue mode but you need disc1 to do the initial boot first.
docs contains the documentation.
implying that the "livefs" CD is not supposed to be bootable.
