The section in the Handbook presents a solution for a scenario in which

I'd like to install 5.4 on several machines. The hardware is similar,
but not exactly equal (different size HDs, different amount of

Is there any way to install 5.4 on different machines with the same

You could use freebsd livecd (http://livecd.sourceforge.net/) for multiple
installations. I don't know what kickstart is, but livecd lets you build an
installation cd from an existing installation, and replicate it on other
machines.
