yes, 10/11/12 beta work without a problem(and really fast), 8/9 have been
reported to work at least since 0.6.0. with the "ide" fix committed to that
version.
The problem seems related with "ide" emulation and real mode drivers, so I
don't think an older BSD can reproduce.
I will test if an older BSD is also affected by this, I can also provide
you a place for you to get the versions 8/9 x86 iso, if that is ok
in any way.
Many thanks for the time on checking this one.
