Binary attachments are scrapped by the mailinglist, however, your problem is reproducible. First off, the emulated framebuffer is probably not supported by FreeBSD. This happens sometimes on real hardware, too and then the serial console has to be used for installing. When looking at the serial console in this case, a lot of messages "Unimplemented service milliseconds ([0] -- [1])" are popping up there while the system tries to boot the kernel. https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/818645 seems to be this exact problem and probably it's still not implemented/fixed in OpenBIOS.
