 The other OSes may be recovering (with performance penalty) from your 
 RAM errors due to additional code not present in FreeBSD.  In my 
 experience this error is not a red herring, it indicates a real problem 
 with your memory.

After retesting with the current version of memtest86+ and discovering
no problems, then still running into the same error after taking each
memory chip out of the portable, I brought the machine back to the
store's service department.  They didn't find anything either.

I'm suspecting that there may be some problem in the firewire driver
since that's where the final messages are coming from.

So what I'd like to do at this point is find some way to disable loading
the firewire driver to see if I can get the install process going any
further than that.  I've tried going into the command line interface and
entering set hw.firewire.enable=0 but that doesn't seem to have any
effect.  And I don't believe I can build a custom kernel without
firewire if I can't get the initial install going.

So where to go from here?

Fatal Trap 19 on initial install

What form of memory testing does the install process use?  Or is there
some way to get more specific info about where the failure is occuring?
It'll be easier for me to work with the manufacturer if I can give them
more info about the failure.

No testing is done by the OS, these errors are being reported to it by 
the hardware as they occur.  Your BIOS may keep a log of ECC errors it 
detects.
