I get a "kmem_suballoc" panic.

kmem_suballoc: bad status return of 3


Any ideas why?  Kernel is compiled with MAXMEM=523264.  The memory is seen
by the BIOS boot.



Also, my BIOS has a setting for AT compatibility mode enabled/disabled.

What does this mean, and what effect may it have on FreeBSD?
