This may be a complete newbie question, or it may have been answered 
before but I would appreciate any help or input that can be provided.

I have a Sony VAIO PCG-GRZ615M laptop which I'm trying to install 
FreeBSD on. I boot from the CD and then try selecting each one of the 7 
boot options however each option I pick returns the below and then the 
system reboots, as such I can not start the installation.

----------------------------------------------
fwohci0: Link S100, max_rec 2 bytes
fwohci0: max_rec2 -> 512
fwohci0: bus_OPT 0x0 -> 0xf8008000
fwohci0: fwohci_set_intr: 1

firewire :<IEEE1394(firewire)Bus> on fwohci0
fatal trap 12: page fault while in Kernel mode

fault virtual address = 0x2c
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x8 :0xc02e5a50
Stack pointer = 0x10 :0xc0b2e8c4
frame pointer = 0x10 :0xc0b2e8c8
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
              = DPL0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interrupte enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process = 0 (swapper)
trap number = 12

Panic: Page fault
----------------------------------------------

I would appreciate it if anyone could help me with this or provide advice.

Cheers.
