FreeBSD + Squid as transparent proxy + Lightsquid

Hey all, first post here so please be kind :)

I am using a pfSense Firewall currently and am liking it a lot. I have the squid package set up and running as a transparent proxy with lightsquid for reporting. What I would like is to build up a standalone proxy server to do the same thing, and would like to do this using FreeBSD, but have never used it before.

What I am looking for is a tutorial or something similar so I can firstly learn how to install FreeBSD and set up Squid as a transparent proxy with caching, and lightsquid (or something similar)

It works just fine as is on pfSense, but I want to start caching more content as bandwidth here is really expensive, plus I would prefer to have this on another machine and not my firewall box.
