I tried to install Freebsd 9.0 (disc1 version) on HP Proliant DL160 Gen8 but every time when FreeBSD starts to load kernel - server reboots. I didn't even see main menu.
 
I'm guessing you're trying the IA-64 version instead of AMD64.
 
FreeBSD 8.3 or the upcoming FreeBSD 9.1 have newer versions of the ciss(4) driver, which support the P420 raid controller. None of those versions work with the built in Broadcom NIC BCM5719 though.
 
According to yongari@ it will be MFCd after 3 ~ 4 weeks. So it is doubtful that it will make an appearance in 9.1-RELEASE.
