You don't select the hardware during the installation. FreeBSD installs a default (GENERIC) kernel w/ support for many things that probably you don't have. Enter configuration at boot time (type -c at the boot prompt, then choose Visual) and disable everything you don't need. When you're able to boot your system, consider compiling a custom kernel.
