I'm a Windows guy and a total newbie with FreeBSD/Unix like operating systems. On my notebook PC all I did was boot from FBSD CD #1 and direct the installer to use the entire USB drive. In the BIOS I put the USB drive ahead of the hard drive in the boot sequence. I did not touch the hard drive or its MBR; it remains 100% Vista. When I want to boot FreeBSD, all I do is insert the USB drive otherwise Vista boots. It is all automatic.
