Working backwards, I wound up trying 5.5 and 5.6, but I was unable to type at the install prompt. Next, I successfully installed 5.7 through 6.2. Each of these then panicked on mii_phy_setmedia on first boot. >Did bsd.rd work? Or did you do the install some other way (not directly >on the machine, or with bge disabled)? bsd.rd worked. Booting without hostname.bge0 is enough to boot normally, but dhclient or ifconfig causes panic.
