I just double-checked by booting again.  That's definitely my Ultra 30,
and I'm definitely using Ken's -p1 ISO, downloaded from ftp4 this morning
Here's a fresh paste from a fresh boot (note that this is straight from
the console at boot):

FreeBSD 5.4-RC3 #1: Thu Apr 28 13:53:28 UTC 2005

Marcel, I don't know if anything else besides your changes went into
the ISO, but I doubt it -- Ken, can you confirm?

I booted three times from the -p1 ISO and didn't get the lockup.  I was
in a hurry this morning and did not have time to follow this up with
separate testing of the old ISO.  I suppose it's possible that something
else made my problem go away.  I can test the vanilla 5.4-RC3 ISO again
when I get home.

Dieter and Gheorghe both reported the same problem on different
hardware; I'd be curious to see their test results and dmesg.

Incidentally, that "stray vector" error I mentioned at the outset is
showing up right after the "jumping to kernel entry 0xc0040000." :

stray vector interrupt 2029


I have no idea if this is related in any way.
