I should look before I leap.  Take a look at the following page.. 

http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig-trouble.html

Specifically, when it says press [enter] to continue, press space.  Then
just type "kernel.GENERIC" w/o the quotes.

Assuming you haven't removed the generic kernel, that should boot you with
the generic kernel and you could go about fixing the problem.
