bootonly cdrom

Hello,
I fail in installing FreeBSD-7.0-RELEASE from the bootonly cdrom
at an AMD 3000 Sempron (not a 64-bit processor):
Page fault (trap 12). So I would like to produce a proper crashdump.
How do I do this?
On an already installed system I would set into /etc/rc.conf,
whith ad0s4b being a swap partition:
boot_verbose="YES"
verbose_loading="YES"
dumpdev="/dev/ad0s4b"
dumpdir="/var/crash"
But what if I install a fresh distribution from CD?
I could remaster the bootonly cdrom. But which files do
I have to change, then, to get a crashdump?
Or would some kernel parameters be sufficient?
BTW: The snapshot 200806-bootonly-cdrom also caused a page
fault to me.
Bye, bye
Juergen
