You can use the PAO boot floppy to boot and install FreeBSD. Put the PAO distribution on your laptop and follow the instructions to build it (you will need the kernel sources). After this you should have FreeBSD to go. This worked for me. I believe I have install FreeBSD this way using a network card (3com 3C589) and a scsi cdrom (Adaptec 1460 slim scsi). I hope this helps you.
