My system also hangs during boot time. I don't know if it is because I
added the second HD or because I switched to FreeBSD 1.0. I tend to think
it is because  of the second HD. Swap is enabled
on the first HD but not the second one. Both are IDE.

I happened to find that removing -p option from fsck in /etc/rc file
solves the problem.
