Just to reiterate, I'm using FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE as of a few days ago, and I've never seen this problem before. The wierd message comes from /usr/src/sys/i386/i386/machdep.c: "Too many holes in the physical address space, giving up" It prints before even the copyright message on bootup. Second is (I think as a result of this message) My total memory is too small by over 100M (I have 512M): Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.
