When installing freebsd, after menu option selection, the boot process freezes at "Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0". On verbose booting it freezes giving some mode information:

md0: Preloaded image 4194304 bytes at 0xffffffff80c4be40
ATA PseudoRAID loaded
flowtable cleaner started
warning: no time-of-day clock registered, system time will not be set accurately
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0
