You might want to recompile your kernel with the ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER
option. This allows you to use ~^b to enter the debugger instead
of ctrl-alt-esc.

GPT booting is I believe only natively supported using an EFI BIOS.
However if you wish to use GPT booting with FreeBSD its not too hard,
you just cant install using sysinstall.

The only thing that looks out of place is that you have defined
ad0s1-2 before ad0s1-1. I've never tested it, but perhaps this is
causing it to get confused when calculating the disk layout? In other
words, perhaps you should use

I am suspecting a broken CPU, but am not sure.
These commands:
cd /usr/ports/sysutils/hal
cpuset -c -l 2 make
Will always result in errors, for example this one:

`config.h.in'. Stop.

As far as I know, having the root pool on a stripe isn't supported.
