I've been investigating the fact that FreeBSD appears to be smashing the mangement firmware because of the ipmi(4) code attempting to attach to the ACPI and ISA versions of the BMC. =20 Do you see attempts to attach to "ipmi1" and do you see various cases where you get a "NMI" of some kind on an ifconfig up of your network interfaces?
