Old report: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=87775
I know this was reported just yesterday.

The fix says to try 6.0-RC1
Which is what I'm running

Machine is: G5 iMac
I get the same problem

Description
        The system will not boot the kernel. When you boot it displays:
        KDB: debugger backends: ddb
        KDB: current backend: ddb
        (in old report it has the fatal kernel trap...I don't get that message just the above)

How-To-Repeat
        Boot from the CD.
        Hit enter to boot immediately when prompted

Will reply with more information, Just ask what else you need me to do
and run.

Thanks, Happy to help FreeBSD :)
