I thought I would mention this, as additional information to item 2.24 in
the FreeBSD FAQ (The boot floppy starts but hangs at the ``Probing
Devices...'' screen).

I have also had this problem with an atapi cdrom drive.  Particularly one
made by LITE-ON Technologies, model LTN382.  This is a 40x drive.  I wouldn't
have suspected it but for the other IDE devices mentioned in the FAQ for this
problem.  Swapping out the cdrom drive to another manufacturer made the
problem go away.  I was attempting to install FreeBSD 3.2 at the time.
