Do you have a serial port on that server ? Use it as a console port:
1)
echo '-Dh -S115200' > /boot.config
2)
vi /boot/loader.conf
------------
console="comconsole"
comconsole_speed=115200
------------
Then: connect it to some kermit session from a different box,
and write a session log. This might capture some last gasp.
