The last line is the ATAPI device detection. What ATA controller do you 
have there? On one Core2Duo-class Supermicro system alike hang was 
caused by ITE PATA controller. In that case it was workarounded by 
adding hint.ata.0.mode="PIO4" to /oot/loader.conf. You may try just set 
it from loader prompt with `set` command.
