After you create the root partition CREATE a /usr directory. Then
create the usr partition and run install the second time. It can't
mount Partition G on /usr because there is no /usr.

This is the way disklabel was designed. I'm thinking about changing
it so that root is A, swap is B, the first USR is G the whole disk is C and
then the rest of the partitions that it finds get randomly scattered
at the other numbers.
