I was seeing exactly this sort of thing too, after replacing my old
Pentium 133 workstation with a newer machine. Then, FreeBSD would
freeze and stop responding even to CTRL-ALT-ESC that should bring up
the kernel debugger :/

I have a Gigabyte Titan 667 Series motherboard on my Celeron @ 1800.
The model of the motherboard is GA-8ST667. The dmesg output includes
the following:
% dmesg | grep -i sis
atapci0: <SiS 5591 ATA33 controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 2.5 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0

usb2: <SiS 5571 USB controller> on ohci2
uhub2: SiS OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
I could only boot my installed -CURRENT by disabling hw.ata.atapi_dma :/
Try setting hw.ata.ata_dma="0" and hw.ata.atapi_dma="0" at the loader
prompt, and see if you can at least boot your system.
