Found the problem Its not Freebsd, its the pci raid controller. It was suggested to me on daemonforums.org to unplug all the drives and then plug them in one by one until it happened again, and it did, it happened when I plugged the first drive into the controller. Any ways, now I have to figure out how to get the controller to not want to boot the drives.
