As you probably found when doing your homework, it is impossible for
us to help without a good description of your hardware, the version of 
FreeBSD you are using, and whatever output you saw when you booted
FreeBSD. 

Please post the output of the SRM 'show conf' command.  Please also
post the boot output from FreeBSD.  It is helpful to use a serial
console to capture this output (you may also be able to scroll back in
a graphics console by hitting scroll-lock & using the pageup/pagedown
keys).

Cheers,

Drew
