Partition issue during reinstall
-
New pfsense user here. I just recently installed 2.4.4 on a PC Engines APU4c4 with a Dogfish Msata 120GB disk. I accepted all the defaults and didn't notice any issues/errors during the install. After setting up basic interface and NAT settings I decided to move it to my wiring closet but it never fully booted and was stuck at the db prompt.
I'm trying to re-install from scratch but I'm getting stuck partitioning the drive. I'm selecting the Auto (UFS) Guided Disk Setup, selecting to use the Entire Disk, then selecting GPT partition scheme. The partitions are laid out as follows:
lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqPartition Editorqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk x Please review the disk setup. When complete, press x x the Finish button. x xlqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqkx xxada0112 GB GPT xx xx ada0p1 512 KB freebsd-boot xx xx ada0p2 108 GB freebsd-ufs / xx xx ada0p3 3.8 GB freebsd-swap none xx xxda0 15 GB MBR xx xx da0s1 800 KB !239 xx xx da0s2 711 MB BSD xx xx da0s2a 711 MB freebsd-ufs xx xmqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqv(+)jx tqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqu x<Create> <Delete> <Modify> <Revert> < Auto > <Finish> x mqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqj
When I select Finish, then Commit, I see a quick flash that indicates some kind of failure on ada0p2, then I get the following error:
lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqErrorqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk x Error mounting partition /mnt: x x mount: x x /dev/gptid/b4ef88c8-f727-11e7-a1aa-000 x x db951a560: Invalid argument x tqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqu x < OK > x mqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqj
If I go through the same process, but with MBR, I get the following error:
lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqErrorqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk x Error mounting partition /mnt: x x mount: /dev/ufsid/5a52111b2a87aba9: R/W mount x x of / denied. Filesystem is not clean - run x x fsck.

I poked around with gpart in the shell and I figured I would destroy the partition table and start from scratch, but once I destroy it, I get two entries for "diskid/DISK-AA". I'm not sure what they mean and I'm not even sure how to continue with the install after manually partitioning the disk. You can see details below. Any assistance would be appreciated.
