You didn't list a specific failure message... Unless you have a specifically configured BIOS, you can not boot except from INT 13 BIOS drive 0x80 or 0x81. A bootable OS must be located on either the first or the second device. This corresponds to the first and second drive identified by the system, and reported to the FreeBSD boot blocks.
