Your problem is probably better dealt with by sending mail to the 
freebsd-questions mailing list. When you do, be sure to provide more 
information than you did here. Specifically, you'll want to explain 
exactly what you see, not just what the error message is. In other 
words, how far into the boot does it get. 

As an aside, the Sybopsis of your PR was very confusing. I'm not sure 
what you meant by "Installing FreeBSD on an MSDos Fat partition".  
Also, does "IBM formatted" mean that the disks came preformatted, or 
that you formatted them yourself. You should _always_ format the disks 
yourself.
