Thank you very much, Fumihiko-san, that solved the booting problem!

However, I was still unable to install 5.1-JPSNAP on the machine. With 
the BIOS settings you suggested, I managed to get to sysinstall. After 
specifying the desired install setting, sysinstall refuses to install, 
claiming it did not detect a CD/DVD drive?

The drive in question is detected during boot as:

umass0: NewAge International STORIX Optical Series, rev 2.00/0.01
(see http://www.isi.edu/larse/misc/DSC00909.JPG)

Can sysinstall not install off of USB drives?

To circumvent this issue, I copied the install CD contents onto a local 
FTP server, and tried a network install. After contacting the server and 
formatting the partition, sysinstall panic'ed died with an ffs panic. A 
snapshot of the traceback is here: 
http://www.isi.edu/larse/misc/DSC00908.JPG

Any ideas on how to pull -current onto this laptop, other then 
installing -stable and compiling from scratch?

Thanks,
Lars
