I just handled this myself.  Look at the output from dmesg, and then go
into the kernel config file:
/sys/i386/conf/KERNEL, or GENERIC
and look for references to the devices not found.  Then comment them out.
I also have the complete freebsd.  My machine used to pause for  while
looking for a second IDE drive, but i followed the kernel config chapter,
found the entry and removed it.  That takes about 5-10 seconds off the
boot time.
