Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Here is what was left on my remote screen
after the panic:
root@ducky:/usr/src/sys/compile/DUCKY] # make install
chflags noschg /kernel
mv /kernel /kernel.old
install -c -m 555 -o root -g wheel -fschg kernel /kernel
if [ -d /modules -a -n "`ls /modules`" ]; then mkdir -p /modules.old; cp
-p /modules/* /modules.old; fi;

I tried the old kernel, but it failed to get past the probing. I can't
remember the messages, but it was something like "isa_?? cannot get ports
for le...... cannot get irq for le".

There is no /kernel.old any more. I have installed the new 4.2 kernel
when the drive was mounted in another box. Its that kernel which produce
the messages below.
Thanks.
