>Description:
I suppose this problem is hardware related.
this is the specs of the machine.

xSeries336 X3.2/2MB L2/2x512MB
typenumber: 8837-2CY

an side effect on setting hint.apic.0.disabled="1" is that your ps2 keyboard will stop working. this will ofcourse mean you will need an usb keyboard
>How-To-Repeat:
set hint.apic.0.disabled="0" and it hangs during the boot process.
>Fix:
set hint.apic.0.disabled="1" during bootup last line is:
acd0: DVDROM <HL-DT-STDVD-ROM GDR8083N/0L02> at ata-master UDMA33
and for a more permanent solution, after installing the system put
hint.apic.0.disabled="1" into /boot/loader.conf

To submitter:  Firstly, sorry that this PR has not been looked at 
for so long.  Can you confirm if this is now fixed on newer versions 
of FreeBSD?

State-Changed-Why:  
Mark as suspended: mail to submitter bounces, but this hardware is 
new enough for us to care about and have a chance of finding others 
to test it.

State-Changed-Why:  
Unsuspend, I've found other people with the same issue.  Both 
<mich at freebsd.org> and <avleeuwen at gmail.com> confirm that 
disabling the built-in network interface allows the machine to boot 
6.x.  Apparently, this is resolved in at least 7.0-RC2 amd64 (according to 
http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?6eb82e0711060722g2a7876ccrd3eaf8912f5e84fa )

Responsible-Changed-By: gavin 
Responsible-Changed-When: Tue Feb 26 10:44:43 UTC 2008 
Responsible-Changed-Why:  
This seems to be amd64 specific.  FreeBSD/i386 seems to work fine 
on this hardware.

Feedback timeout. A comment from gavin@ suggests that the problem has 
been resolved in supported branches.
