It seems in the latest -CURRENT, the following in the kernel config file based on the GENERIC kernel: options MAXMEM=786432 would hang the kernel right after: Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.

Tested this on two notebooks and a desktop, same results. Taking out that line in the kernel config would make a bootable kernel.
