Am I doing something wrong or the BETA1 installer cannot be used to
manually create the partition scheme?
1) it doesn't accept "freebsd-swap" as partition type ("invalid

2) it doesn't recognize that I have actually created a root (/) mount
point; since it doesn't show mountpoints maybe it forgets the input
from the dialog?
The partition editor looks very rudimentary and feature-less. It
really should show "space left" on the drive.
It does show mountpoints, and of course does support swap partitions.
You can use the partition editor to create quite complicated multi-disk
partition layouts over a variety of schemes, and in that way it is
wildly more featureful than what was in sysinstall.
Can you describe more what you were trying to do, in terms of what
partition scheme you were using, etc.? The "invalid argument" is a
message coming from the kernel, so something must be very wrong in your
setup.
