Default Noob question re: ZFS on 8.0 installation

I am able to successfully install ZFS using this guide except I am having trouble with the last step, where it says to sysinstall. How do I sysinstall without clobbering what I just installed? Thanks in advance!

Exit Fixit mode, and then [exit] sysinstall.
Does that make more sense? It's saying to reboot and remove the install disc.

That interpretation makes sense, but some other guides explicitly recommended using sysinstall afterward. If it's not necessary, though, all the better.
