In any case, I suppose the OP could just use a floppy
boot disk, like slackware's:

http://tinyurl.com/2evgaa
Which should bypass any (most) moronic bioses.
any. i use bootable CD for this. very easy to create, and you can fit
whole /boot easily.
FreeBSD can use any IDE drive on any IDE controller, including 500GB drive
on ISA 486, that's all just BIOS problems.
