I got past that by running the patch at the bottom of: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-i386/2003-September/000325.html then remaking the ISOs. That let me at least install freebsd, but I can't get it to boot. However, I suspect my problems are related to my attempting to keep a dual boot install and putting freebsd way high up on the disk. Your mileage may vary. If you'd like I can send you a link to my 4.9-stable+patches miniinst iso.
