I had a similar problem once. I was booting from a sata raid control
and compiled a kernel without ata raid support. It would reboot after
the modules preloaded and before the boot menu came up. I would
recommend making a bootable cd with a custom kernel, or just a new one
with the right(or all) drivers for raid.
I haven't heard of btx loader before, but google just came back with a
load of stuff, including an email on the freebsd lists about a bios
update fixing some raid controller that would otherwise prevent you from
booting.
