I know that hanging at the root mount in not uncommon. What is bizarre is that my laptop was running -stable and a make world was done not too long ago. It never hung. Then I crashed my system (due to my own stupidity) and had to reinstall 4.5. The iso disks would all hang at the root mount. Then I took a freshly cvsup'd source from my other machine and installed it in the laptop after booting from a 4.1 iso. After makeworld it hung also at the root mount. I was very fortunate to find in the list archives the magic commands that I put into loader.conf: hw.pcic.intr_path=1 hw.pcic.irq=0 Now it boots OK, but I still can't figure out why I didn't need this before?
