1. What FreeBSD version exactly?  (Please don't say "9.1", we need to
know the full version, e.g. 9.1-RELEASE, or if you built your own we
need uname -a output (you can hide the machine name))

2. How many disks are in the machine?

3. Are any of the disks used for ZFS?

There have been **many** improvements to the FreeBSD bootloader with
regards to things taking a long time on boot-up in semi-recent days, but
answers to the above questions will determine that.
