Well, I didn't recieve any response from mailing lists, but I got this laptop working booting from 4.4 anyway :) I'm sure there would be an easier way to do this, but I took the hd out of the laptop and popped it in my desktop... without a hang at boot, I might add. I was able to install and configure FBSD and play with kernel configurations by putting the HD back into my laptop... I didn't need to configure anything in the BIOS, just enable the pcm driver in ther kernel config (i.e. "device pcm" -- Full config at end of this message). I also was able to get pcmcia working, and am putting X on there right now. Glad I could get this working, thought I was out of luck!
