Try installing an up-to-date version of FreeBSD, which at least has a
chance of supporting Intel 82801CA/CAM SMBus Controller. 4.7-RELEASE
was over a year ago, and 4.10-RELEASE is due out R.S.N.
However, it's unlikely that the SMBus controller is the cause of
things hanging -- after all, all the kernel has done is ask the card
what its PCI ID is, and decided it doesn't have a driver for it. It's
probably the next thing that gets probed which is killing the boot.
Cheers,
Matthew
