The first couple of times, I fell victim to the "failure to name slices" issue. I took a breath, did the "help" on disklabel, found the "n" command, and was good to go. It really is a faster, easier (I did not believe that was possible) install. I do appreciate the ability to create users, and to shut off SSH access to root immediately. All the more secure at the offing...
