--- Comment #4 from Chuck Coffing <ccoffing@gmail.com> ---
I just encountered this same "BTX halted" with the same cs:eip instruction
stream, on an AMD K6-III booting FreeBSD 13.2 i386 bootonly iso.

The documentation at https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/i386/ claims that the
i386 port will run on any i486 and newer.  However, notice the instruction
stream:

cs:eip=3D0f 45

0f 45 is CMOVNE.  The CMOV instructions were introduced with the Pentium Pr=
o.=20
The original reporter's P5 90 and my K6-III are both i586-class and do not
support these i686 instructions.

I would expect that the BTX should be built using conservative instruction =
set,
and more sophisticated CPU identification is done later in the boot.  So my
guess is that BTX is being built wrong (for example, maybe no "-mtune").
