Do you have a way to choose either i386 or amd64 installs?

5 I changed my rc.conf to start a simple shell script and not the
bsdinstall bits

Maybe you mean "/etc/rc.local" there?

export TERM=vt220

echo "o  PC-SYSINSTALL "
exec /conf/picker.sh


Trying to start this from SYSLINUX almost works. My menu config just does

  menu label FreeBSD 9 Install
  pxe {serverip}:/usr/tftpboot/images/fbsd9ins/boot/pxeboot

The kernel boots, it gets to

  Trying to mount root from nfs: []...
  NFS ROOT: {serverip}:/usr/tftpboot/images/fbsd9ins

and then it stops and just sits. NFS mount of that directory works on another system. Anything obvious I should check? I know pxeboot needs to be recompiled for some things, but can't recall the details.
