My question is, if the system fails (I'm assuming these are panics) how
do I get the machine to NOT automatically reboot so I can copy down the

Try hooking up a serial console and logging a system run with "boot -v", overnight. Make sure that you have all of the kernel debug options in GENERIC in your kernel as they will provide insight that can help trace the problem.

Additionally, set your kernel up for debugging. This will allow you to get a great deal of information after a crash. This section of the developer's handbook will talk you through it: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html
