I am running into an error I have never had before installing FreeBSD 
2.0.5 on a new system.  With the boot floppy 
rawritten from the CD) the system probes all of the devices like it 
should and then the screen goes blank except for a message "panic: panic 
for historical reasons" and the system reboots.  I have already tried 
disabling all drivers except the absolutely essential ones.  I can not go 
back and read the device probing messages because the scroll-lock key 
does not appear to work in this case.

The system is a Dell D/33 with a 486 DX4/100 Overdrive.  Two hard-drives 
and an aic SCSI card with a Sony CD-ROM drive.  24MB RAM.  Hints anyone?
