have you tried different boot options? noapic, noacpi etc?

are there any messages? how far does the boot goes? 

or isn't the cd even recognized? did you make sure that the cd was burned 
correctly?

try to boot the system on knoppix or another (linux) boot cd...

Check your bios setting that the booting off the cd is an early option.
First establish that the cd will allow some linux distro to boot the system,
then we can focus in on a particular livecd (or minimal) to get you into
the installation process.

How did you burn the CD using K3B? As a data project, or as a disk 
image?

A quick check is to pop the CD into a machine that works, mount the CD 
and see what's on it. If you see one file called <something>.iso, then 
you burned it wrong and need to burn another one as a full disk image.

If that check is OK, then make sure that the .iso you downloaded is not 
corrupt by checking it's MD5 sum by following the instructions on the 
downlaod site.

Next time you ask for help on a mailing list, it's a good idea to 
describe exactly what problem you are having. You didn't say, so we 
donlt know, and I just guessed at what is the most common problem.

So, does the CD boot at all? What's on the screen? If it boots and tries 
to run, where does it stop and what error messages do you get when it 
does?

Cara, tem que gravar como imagem, senão não boota.

In english: You must record the CD in image mode to make a bootable CD.

>> I found out K3B is not fully qualified to write bootable CDs on FreeBSD-6.1-R
amd64, that's my case. Xcdroast is far better. The matter is that I burned such
program by using 32bit Slackware Linux. So it's not on FreeBSD amd64 but on
Linux32bit  K3B fails as well.

well, you all make something wrong, because I have burned countless boot 
cd/dvd on amd64 - not with freebsd, but if they configured k3b badly maybe 
someone should open a bug report with them?
