How can you tell? The last message it prints is "Loading ffs",
the "Copyright" message neither shows up on the 9600bd serial nor on the
console.
(with DDB_ONPANIC it still reboots before printing the Copyright message
- I verified that).

Doesn't boot -12  disable ACPI and SMP ?  - Shouldn't that have the same
effect as compiling without support?

My next try is to enable KGDB and see if I can attach to the system.
Is it possible to already attach in the bootstrap loader, or do I have
to wait for the kernel to setup the remote-gdb interface?
