FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE Install Hang

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.0 on a Dell Dimension 800XPS and I keep
running into a hang during the device probe in sysinstall.  I've tried
setting hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" to no avail.  On the second console the
last message I see is:

DEBUG: Add mapping for /dev/cuaa0 to sl0

and then the system hangs indefinitely.  I see the same problem with
5.0-CURRENT as of the 20030421 snapshot.  Can anyone clue me in as to
what could be locking the system up?
