Installing GRUB2 to FreeBSD 9.1

Hi, colleagues!

I am trying to install GRUB2 to FreeBSD. Here is my worklow:

1. Have a machine with Windows 7;
2. Cut off 50 GB of C partition, create FreeBSD and install FreeBSD 9.1 on it;
3. FreeBSD added itself to MBR and now it starts loading directly after POST
4. Updates ports tree and made GRUB2 port
5. Configured GRUB2 as described here:

As a result I cannot install GRUB. It shows an error:

Code:
root@FreeBSD:/root # cp -Rf /usr/local/lib/grub/i386-pc /boot/grub
root@FreeBSD:/root # sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16
kern.geom.debugflags: 0 -> 16
root@FreeBSD:/root # grub-install --modules=ufs2 /dev/ada0
/usr/local/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such partition.
/usr/local/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such partition.
/usr/local/sbin/grub-setup: error: no such partition.

Here is my device layout:

I am also attaching screenshot from partitioning tool.

Could you, please, help me solve the issue?
