I had problems with DL3X0G5 when booting with PXE, every now an then the 
loader would hang when trying to load the kernel from an i386 8-CURRENT 
NFS server. As soon as i had installed everything and was booting from 
the disks the problem did not show up anymore. I also used amd64.

Do you use PXE boot?

Cheers,
