State-Changed-Why: 
This is strange: it sounds like FreeBSD has somehow failed to detect your
hard drives.  Do you have the ability to capture the boot messages (either
with a serial console, or with a digital camera)?  If so, ccan you please
boot with the "bootverbose" option from the menu, and once you're in the
installer press scroll lock, page up, and take a picture of the screen?
Then press page up again and take another picture, untly you've got the
last 10 or so screens of text?  Then please upload these somewhere and
share a link to them?  Thanks!
