We don't have msk(4); it seemed to work without a problem on FreeBSD 7
(which has been installed until I tried to install DragonFly).  We don't
have a networking without it.
The installer went fine until it failed installing the boot manager.
It seemed that fdisk was complaining about something was not multiple
of sector size(sorry, forgot writing down the log).

Cheers.
