Which version of FreeBSD is that ???
Please try the boot floppy from the latest SNAP,
and if it doesn't work, send verbose boot messages
(output with "-v" entered at the "Boot: " prompt).

Try setting the port address to 0x7000, since this 
has been reported to be the value choosen by Compaq's
PCI BIOS. Don't know the IRQ offhand, though.

But you first have to get FreeBSD to probe the PCI bus.
And FreeBSD-current and the latest SNAPs ought to get 
it right ...
