There is a lot of useful info there, and I also found a lot of useful
tips from Warren Block on how to create swap as a file, how to use
tmpfs, about noatime etc. However, nowhere I can found anything that
could explain me for sure how to do this BEFORE that:

I've got 240G Kingston SSD. I want this:

win7:
  ada2s1 ~ 30G empty (probably for experimental little win7 install in
the future)

freebsd9:
  ada2s2a ~3G for /
  ada2s2d ~80G the for /usr (separated for easier backup)
  ada2s2f ~ the rest for storage

How to do this with gpart, respecting 4g alignment etc? Can anybody
share the exact commands to achieve this?
