The subject and body of your email do not match. The subject says the panic was w/ ACPI, while in the body you say the panic was without. Please try to keep these things in sync... Thanks for the report. If it works, the recommendation is to use ACPI. It is possible you chose to boot without ACPI during the FreeBSD install (possibly safe mode?). I have experienced that this will cause ACPI to be disabled by adding a hint line in /boot/loader.conf (something like 'hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"'). Set this line to "0" or remove it and the default should be to boot with ACPI enabled.
