I always used hvm with FreeBSD 7.2 >From the moment I upgraded to 7.3 or 8.0=2C I get a kernel panic. Even the install cd does not boot for 7.3 or 8.0. I did not fixed this yet. I would think that this is happening since there = is some virtual stuff included in the kernel by default now and this was no= t there in 7.2 Maybe you can just disable hvm or something in the kernel config. As IIRC w= ith HVM the OS is not aware that it is virtualised. Please let me know if you find a solution! Greetings! =
