Installation sticks on probing

Hi,

  I was trying to install BSD 6.3. During the probing
process, the
  probe sticks (forever) when it sees the HD controller
which is an
  Intergrated Technology Express ITE IT8212 ATA. This
happened in both
  a 1998 and 2007 era computer. The hardware manual says
that the card
  is supported. Is there some keystroke or command that will
make BSD
  skip pass the probing?

  The Linux Slax Live 5.1.7b disk will boot and see the
Maxtor 6L200P0
  disk drive that is connected to the controller. With Slax,
I was
  previously able to format the Maxtor disk and write files
to it, but
  I'm not able to get past the probing in BSD 6.3.

  Thanks for you help.
