I'm trying to install FreeBSD/Alpha-3.2-RELEASE on a Multia:

>>>boot dva0
(boot dva0.0.0.0.1 -flags 0 )
block 0 of dva0.0.0.0.1 is a valid boot block
reading 14 blocks from dva0.0.0.0.1
bootstrap code read in
base = 154000, image_start =0, image_bytes = 1c000
initializing HWRPB at 2000
initializing page table at 146000
initializing machine state
setting affinity to the primary CPU
jumping to bootstrap code

At which point the Multia promptly hangs with the floppy drive spinning.
The "version" string displayed when I boot is "BL3 X3.5-72 Nov 30 1994
18:22:35.

Any suggestions?

I have successfully installed Redhat 5.2 on this machine, but would rather
run FreeBSD.
