Try ejecting the install floppy disk :)

Actually, you should be able to boot up without the floppy.  If you have
multiple systems on your PC, try installing os-bs or some other boot
manager.  Or specify where your fbsd parition is from the boot: prompt,
ie, ifyour disk is the second ide disk you would type

wd(1,a)/kernel

And for scsi:

sd(1,a)/kernel

Modify the number as appropriate to select the disk you want.
