Ouch...

First of all: A backtrace would definitely help. At the "db>" prompt
type:
	trace

Secondly: It looks like the ida(4) driver is not 64-bit clean. The
faulting instruction is an 8-byte wide load from an address that's
not 8-byte aligned. This is always fatal in the kernel, although
it's not the reason for the panic in this case. Nonetheless, the
code is suspicious...

The ida(4) driver comes as a loadable kernel module, but happens
to be compiled into the kernel by default. Unfortunately this means
that I need to create a new snapshot with the ida(4) driver removed
from the kernel, or you remove the Compaq Disk Array from the machine
until you can build your own kernel without the ida(4) driver.

As for fixing the ida(4) driver: I don't have the hardware, so I
can't do that and I need to see the backtrace to see if one can
fix the ida(4) driver on any 64-bit machine, or if it has to be
an ia64 box...

FYI,
