>Description:
Getting a consistent kernel panic while doing an installation and a bunch of pkg_add work is being done. Funny thing is, that when using ZFS file-system for installation, it finishes properly, but when I switch to UFS + Softupdates this panic occurs like clockwork. That may not be related, but it is a weird quirk none the less.

Let me know if you need additional info.

(As an aside, seeing similar panics on 8.0 / 8.1, when our installer is doing pkg_delete / pkg_add stuff in the disk chroot environment)
>How-To-Repeat:
Just starting an install of PC-BSD / FreeBSD 9.0 snapshots, works fine until it gets into heavy duty pkg_add stuff, then this panic occurs.
>Fix:
Using ZFS works, but it may be an unrelated quirk.
