I had this problem with a Dell M600 blade. I was able to install from a
6.4 ISO, then binary update to 7.0, but when I tried to get to 8.0 I
couldn't boot either.
I gave up trying to fix the issue and installed VMWare ESXi on the blade
and installed FreeBSD 8 on top of that. Not ideal, but I had to get it
working.
Here's what I posted:

On http://drop.io/rk0eoap there is a video of the boot process and where it
died for me:
It hung just after isab0, isa0 and atrtc0 loaded. The last line:
atrtc0: registered as a time-of-day clock (resolution 1000000us)
