I have an ASUS TXP4 motherboard-based machine which has been running
FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE + KAME IPv6 patches forever (at least as time is
measured in the high tech industry) (i.e., since October 25, 2000),
and it happily ran earlier versions of FreeBSD since 1997 or so.  But
I have not been able to boot up any 4.x kernel--it always hangs up
when probing the ISA bus.  The kernel on the 4.5 boot floppies, if
I boot up in verbbose mode, it hangs right after printing the message
"ex_isa_identify()".  Has this happened to anyone else?  What else
can I try to help diagnose the problem?  The only funny hardware in
my system is a Boca 6-port serial board; the other boards are an NE2000
clone, NCR PCI SCSI controller, generic PCI VGA card, and 3com 3C509
PCI ethernet card.
