Couple of things:

1. If you wonder if anyone had a problem similar to yours search the
archives (look at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html).

2. To help you with such a problem people will need to have as much
information about your system as possible, which includes:

- Your hardware (all you can tell about it).
- The version of FreeBSD you're installing
- The installation method (ftp, DOS, CD).
- Anything else you think that's special about your setup.

Post those things and see if you can get any helpful advice.
