I could see what happens if I try to boot the FreeBSD boot partition on the hard drive using the Super Grub Disk with chainloader.
If that works, it would boot FreeBSD 9.0-BETA1, but I would see if it works. I could also try kfreebsd /boot/kernel/kernel On my hard-drive installation, I have a lot of ports to rebuild, and then get to sysutils/grub2: see UPDATING. But I could also build grub2 on my USB-stick installation. I really need either a successful FreeDOS 1.1 installation on USB stick, or SysRescCD installation on USB stick, largely because either of these boot via syslinux, and then I can add things to syslinux.cfg and bootdisk. The only MBR installation of FreeBSD that I have is 8.2 RELEASE on the old computer, which I intend to recycle in very near future, though I plan to save the hard drives (IDE/PATA).
