Can you try reducing this by half again to 100,000 and see if that
helps things? Increasing the amount of available kva with options
KVA_PAGES may also work, but finding the right limits for vnodes is
a better solution. Note that the values for KVA_PAGES are doubled
with PAE, eg 512 gives you the standard 3G user/1G kernel split.

Can you send the full dmesg for this machine? What I'm wondering is
if you see this message during boot when the floppy driver attaches.
printf("isa_dmainit(%d, %d) failed\n", chan, bouncebufsize);
Thanks for the report,
Jake
