Installation Hangs: IDEQ 220N (nforce2)

Hi,

I've been trying to install FreeBSD 5.3 on a small form factor PC
(Biostar IDEQ) with the Nforce 2 chipset. The problem I've been having
is that the installer freezes up right after it detects the hard drive
and cd drive. I've been toggling BIOS settings for a couple hours now,
and nothing seems to work. Also tried the 5.4 RC2, with the same
results. Has anyone seen something similar and know of a workaround?

Thanks,

Brandon Curiel
