After reviewing what goes by on the screen, I think my acpi.ko message is being displayed before *any* of the dmesg output. For example, once the /boot/kernel/acpi.ko finally finishes, I see the "Copyright (c) 1992-2007 The FreeBSD Project." quickly scroll by. I was also thinking of waiting until 7.0 was finished, which I think is later this month.
