Hi The strange looking stuff is likely the standard FreeBSD loader select screen. The version on 7.2 shows up fine for me. the one on 8.0 looks just like you describe.
If it is the same loader it should simply time out and move on. It takes about 10 seconds or so. If not the same one, it's something similar and it's likely waiting for a <cr> from the keyboard.
