Maybe they're not related. In my case even with hw.ata.ata_dma=0 hangs. Could you do "show all procs" from ddb and check if you have two inits? check also if one of them is on nanslp state.On my case if i delete /sbin/init the system notices, so it's reading init.
The problem here (NATA) is, I suspect, that pages are not in memory yet when programs from nata devices are run. Sometimes by chance they are, so things succeed; most of the time they're not. I don't know what the problem is, if biodone is called on my bio's too early, or kern_execve cheats by executing programs before all pages are loaded, or whatever. mmap(2)-ing files that are on nata devices are no problem it seems, only when you try to execute a binary on a nata device the problem appears.
