 I filled out he boxes in the form. Hree's my hardware info:

 AMD Phenom 9500 Quad-Core 2.20 GHz
 2G RAM

 Motherboard Foxconn Digitalife A79A-S

 Drive:
 Seagate ST31000333AS 

 The boot process is to install any recent FreeBSD install CD and it hangs at the 
 part where it say'

 "Probing devices, please wait (this can take a while)... "

 You have provided no technical details at all.  Neither about your hardware nor
 about boot process.
 BTW, I don't understand what is 'amd64 machine'.  'amd64' is a designator we use
 for 64-bit x86-compatible flavor of FreeBSD.
