I fully agree to Nathan, I had the same problem and the same solution:
use another OS. I really can't spend that much time to deploy which
server board / manufacturer FreeBSD likes and which not. SMP is a thing
that doesn't work atm, so I don't use FreeBSD for SMP anymore 'till
it gets stable and compatible again. I sometimes can't believe that
all the boards at least work _somehow_ with other operating systems,
but not with FreeBSD. Even went back using sparc/solaris again...

My personal conclusion: SMP is for non-productional environment only,
as every cvsup/upgrade/hardware change possibly breaks the whole system.
