You'll need to get the FreeBSD sources via CVSup or some other means and 
build 5.3-STABLE. Make sure and use the tag RELENG_5 (as of right now) 
when fetching via CVSup or anoncvs. You may also want to check 
ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/

See: 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html

As far as your errors are concerned, I am no expert at the internal 
workings of the ad driver.. so I'm not going to even try and venture to 
explain whats going on. However, I am sure that someone here who is more 
knowledgable may be able to offer an explanation and/or fix if you are 
able to provide more information (ie how often it occurs, your disk 
drive make, etc etc).
