I don't know...my experience with FBSD and PCs has been limited to Intel
chips. You should probably check out http://www.dejanews.com or
freebsd.org's mailing list to see what others have done.
The only thing I can suggest is to get the latest 2.2.2 (if that's what
you're going to install) floppy (there's a newer one at fbsd's ftp site)-
and make sure that you don't have any hardware conflicts.

It would be helpful, in the future, if you could trace down the exact
point in the boot at which the machine seems to have trouble.

Good luck.
