This sounds like the same issues I have on my Toshiba 1005. I haven't
updated my web page yet, but I'm now using 4.9. See:
http://www.4gh.net/hints/toshiba/satellite1005-s157.html
To boot from the FreeBSD install CD:
Booting [kernel] in 10 seconds...
[press space key]
ok boot -c
[...boot messages...]
config> eisa 0
config> quit
The system should now boot up correctly. You will need to build and
install a new kernel which disables eisa support.
