Trying to install FreeBSD 8.0 amd64 from ISO (burned to CD) on a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H motherboard with a AMD Sempron 140 chip.  BTX loader rebooted to computer as soon as the boot from CD started before I upgraded the BIOS.  I upgraded the BIOS to latest version and now BTX loader is hanging at:

BIOS CD is cd0
BIOS drive A: is disk0

I also tried 7.2 amd64 as well ... same result.
