Well, I tried installing without checking the APM package, but the same
thing happened; do I need to modify the source code itself to disable
the APM option?  I have another dual-boot box with a Celeron 466 aboard,
so once I pull off the Linux distro, I'll try installing FBSD to that
one and see what happens.

Thanks again, guys, for all your feedback.
