Verbose boot console output at hang point

I am unable to install/run FreeBSD 11.1 on a brand-new HPE MicroServer Gen10
containing an AMD Opteron X3421 with 16GB RAM. The installer hangs just aft=
er
it prints:

pci0: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib0

Please see attached console screenshot showing verbose output which suggests
that the boot process hangs just as it has collected information about the =
RAM
on pcib0. This is while booting from a USB (several tried and tested and
integrity validated) or when moving an existing pre-installed elsewhere sys=
tem.
Same affects FreeNAS 11.0 on this system.

Switching off ACPI during boot causes a kernel panic with a message:

panic: running without device atpic requires a local APIC

Trying to set hint.apic.0.disabled=3D1 (tried with apic.0 till apic.3 on th=
is
4-core machine) causes a different panic:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode.

I have started a forum discussion about this issue:
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/61936/

It has also been referred to on FreeNAS forum, as others have been affected:
https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/installation-stop-after-a-few-=
seconds-on-a-microserver-gen10.56809/#post-399023

I only have a basic understanding of FreeBSD but I am a long-time IT
professional and I would be happy to submit further traces and try suggesti=
ons
to help debug it. As-is, it seems like FreeBSD is incompatible with HPE
Proliant MicroServer Gen10.

Thank you for your kind help.
