Barbie:

Since it hangs during configuring devices, can you do the following:

If you have a digital camera or cell phone with camera, you can boot 
kmdb -kdv to see where the hang occurs:

On x86, in the GRUB item, type "e" (for edit) and
then another "e" and then add "-kdv"    to the end of the kernel line
or before the -B options.  Finally, press return to boot this entry.

This will cause the kernel debugger to load

          Loading kmdb...

          Welcome to kmdb
          kmdb: unable to determine terminal type: assuming `vt100'
          Loaded modules: [ unix krtld genunix ]
          [0]>

At the prompt, enter "moddebug/W 0x80000000", <return> and then ":c",
<return> which will then print out each module as it's being loaded.

This will help us to identify which device might be causing issues.
