An update:

I've now manually configured pfsense from scratch, except for the firewall rule section and NAT which I restored from backups. This time I also got a kernel panic when fiddling with the CARP settings.

So to conclude I get a kernel panic when changing CARP settings with pfsense 1.01 and pfsense 1.2b1.

Any thing else I could try?

Thank you for the suggestions.

I've downloaded pfsense 1.2b1 and it produces the same (or relatively the same) kernel panic after restoring from the backed up xml file.

To give a little more history into this I've had the same config file from before 1.01 and restored from backup when upgrading to 1.01. This is the interesting bit though; after restoring from the backup xml file I can add a few things via the web interface (in this case I've been adding carp ips) and it will then bork and give a kernel panic. But if I configure everything from scratch then it seems fine (using pfsense 1.01) . I haven't yet completed the whole configuration but so far so good. It also seems slightly faster via the webinterface.

So at the moment my only conclusion is that restoring from a backup of a 1.01 installation onto the new hardware is producing kernel panics. Does this even sound possible?

Chris is right. Sata was a problem for the old kernel.

PfSense and Dell are a problem in our experience.

      
Work just fine here on Dell pe850
    

The newer Dell models with SATA and/or SAS seem to have issues with 
FreeBSD. The older Dells, like the PE 850, 1850, 2850, 2650, 2550, etc. 
all should be fine.

Try 1.2b1 since it's probably more stable than 1.0.1 and is based on a 
newer FreeBSD release that may not have that issue.
