I'm completely baffled by this one. When FreeBSD shuts down/reboots it

Assuming you've got the psuedo-device tun compiled into your kernel

BTW, some places have recommended commercial solution like Norton Ghost

Partition Magic only manipulates slices and does not know anything

That did the trick; I zapped src/ and ports/ and started again with
