The installation instructions in the handbook predate the BSD Installer,
so some oddness is expected.  You can copy the /etc/rc.conf from the CD,
probably, though there will be a number of options in that file that you
won't want for the live system.  Or, more preferable, you could just
create the rc.conf file and add what you know you need.
