You'll find it in /var/crash/ directory right after the panic
Then go to
cd /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KERNCONF
where KERNCONF is your kernel configuration name (should be GENERIC for=20
GENERIC kernel)
Then execute:
kgdb kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0
And you'll get the debugger prompt.

You can find more info here:
