I had a similar problem with my Toshiba laptop (3005-S304).  While I'm
not currently running FreeBSD on it, I was able to get an install
booted by building a custom kernel _without_ SCSI support.  That was
based on a suggestion I received from someone on the -mobile mailing
list, but I don't recall who it was (sorry).

Anyway, that got a -stable (around 4.5 or 4.6) installation started,
and I was seeing the same problem as you, so hopefully that will help.
