Here's what I tried so far:

o) Updating BIOS, array-controller, iLO to the latest version
o) Booting the installation DVD in safe-mode
o) Booting the installatino DVD verbose mode
o) Escaping to the loader prompt, entering
         kern.eventtimer.periodic=1
         kern.eventtimer.timer="LAPIC"
    and booting the install-DVD with these settings
    (I once could boot and older HP-server using these settings, so
    I tried them here too)

("FreeBSD-install-crash-HP-Proliant-DL580-G5-04.jpg" shows the actual
panic/stacktrace)

Just guessing from what I see -

The panic is "No usable event timer found!"
Have you tried kern.eventtimer.periodic=0 or other values for kern.eventtimer.timer?
Is the panic the same without the loader adjustments?

Can you boot into single user mode?
what does sysctl kern.eventtimer.choice show?

Does it boot 8.3 ?
