First Boot Hangs after pci bus initialization (I think?)

[sanosuke001]

So, I had FreeNAS installed on a 160GB HDD I had lying around when I initially set up my NAS ~2 years ago. It just died. /ripyouf-ingpos

Anyway, I decided to grab a new 8GB USB stick (PNY compact attache) and load it onto that. Did that with no problems but when I went to boot it I got a hung system after the pci bus is inititialized (I think?): "pci0: (PCI bus) on pcib0" is the last line.

So, first thing I tried was disabling ACPI/APIC in bios via an IOAPIC setting in BIOS (set to disabled). Booting USB says it can't find AHCI or some such so I also disabled it in custom boot settings for FreeNAS. I get the same error (screenshot enclosed). I tried another thumb drive, same issue. Anyone have any ideas? System specs below, as well.

Mobo: 790FX-GD70
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 925
RAM: 16GB
USB: PNY Compact Attache
SAS: LSI 4-port 8087
HDD: 8x 3TB WD Green, 3x 1TB Seagate, 4x 4TB Seagate NAS

Again, this worked fine with a 160GB HDD with FreeNAS installed so I don't think it's an issue with my hardware (aside maybe with the USB stick) but I had FreeNAS 9.0 installed previously; tried 9.2.1.5 today.

I figured out my problem; not sure if it will help others but the issue was with a loose USB cable from my server to a USB hub I used for my keyboard/mouse. Removing the offending cable allowed it to boot no problem.
