5.1-RELEASE hardware detect problem - install stalls

I am attempting to install 5.1-RELEASE.  The following items appear in
the log file.  This section is repeated ~15 times, and then the install
procedure moves on to the "...probing devices ..."  screen and never
moves on from there (of course, never is the limit if my patience ... 30
minutes).

I am using the 5.1-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso pulled down from a mirror ftp
site today.

First, here's the cut/paste of dmesg for 4.8.  I think it might be
relevant to the hardware configuration with which 5.1 is having problems.
