On my machine, a kernel newer than one built on the 22nd will not complete
booting, panicing about not being able to mount root. Another machine with a
very similar config is fine. The main difference is that the faulty machine
has its FreeBSD partition in an odd spot on the disk. Below is the dmesg
output, the fdisk output and the config file.
