RC2 boot process fails.

I do not really see a proper category for this, so I said misc

sha256sum FreeBSD-12.1-RC2-amd64-memstick.img
b44943a6989027823c7a90a6f570348425a3a03db97eab6afec343ffa7d7b021  FreeBSD-12.1-RC2-amd64-memstick.img

I get to the pre-boot screen where it shows drives a,b,c / then it just hangs with that spinner not moving at all. 

I've got FreeBSD v12 -p10 installed on this laptop with no issues whatsoever. I don;t see any reason why this 21.1 version is now having issues, and I am not sure what info will help you so this is the output of hwinfo --short
