The messages are from low level disk IO, INT13.

        if (V86_CY(v86.efl)) {
                printf("%s: error %u lba %u\n",
                    BOOTPROG, v86.eax >> 8 & 0xff, lba);
                return (-1);
        }

So the error 1 is:

01h     Invalid Command

Which means the INT13 AX=0x4200  is not supported by this BIOS. So, the 
question is, does your HBA is set in bios to IDE or AHCI mode? Changing that  
may make an difference, also usual suggestion - check for bios update, and if 
the host supports it, check the uefi boot… Of course, the fact that it did run 
fbsd before, points towards bios settings change...

the invalid command from INT13 extended read is by itself quite odd, but there 
is also possible another reason - if by any reason somehow the memory buffer 
for this call is from memory above 640k and so the invalid memory area was 
provided…
