Hi, I don't really know where to go with this issue on my own anymore so
im tossing it to the list for suggestions.

I had a celeron running in a Abit BX6-2 system running -current approx a
month or 1.5 old. Today I moved the disks to a Abit BP6 Motherboard and
recompiled the kernel for smp and the other hardware changes I intended to
make.  Well, when I boot it up it would get down to approx "starting i386
whatever" and the boot would stop, the keyboard wouldnt type (although
numlock would work for x amount of time) and you couldnt drop into
ddb.  Sometimes it would stick in this braindead mode, sometimes if you
tried typing things to get it unstuck it would just reboot after a brief
total keyboard lockup.  No panic, just a reboot.  I booted singleuser and
cleaned up my rc.conf, disabling some noncritical things, and got the
system booting fine.  I have a usb logitech mouse by the way.  Later I
noticed no mouse cursor on my consoles even though I had moused running,
so I ran vidcontrol -m on.  WHAM.  I had found the culprit.  Okay so I
know what caused it and what not to run ;0 I took the opportunity to cvsup
and upgrade the whole system to -current as of today, and to my dismay it
still does the same thing.  I really wish I could drop into ddb when it
happens but it wont let me.  If serial might be a better option I could
probably dig out a null modem cable... Suggestions Please!
