Hi, there...
Didn't really sure can this helps...

I had the problem like this with specific Compaq SCSI adapter. (sorry, 
didn't remember now it's numbers...etc)
I reach out this problem by the way below:
1. Install fbsd on another pc (in my situation I have it on my desktop)
2. Build custom kernel with those SCSI adapters drivers
3. Put custom kernel into boot floppy.

After that I start installation of fbsd as always and that's all...
Custom directives for kernel of my SCSI adapter I found in the 
"/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT".
