Well, this is pretty elusive. I just spent an hour or two systematically
disabling everything in my BIOS that I could disable, and disabling every
hint at the boot prompt that I could disable.

Still panics at the same spot. I'm going to try disabling some modules next.

It's a shame that this problem doesn't occur as predictably when I boot with
boot -Dh or boot -h. Otherwise I'd be able to provide the list with trace
output.

Oh well. I guess I could attempt an install while using boot -h and trace
when it finally dies...
