No valid timers found on ALIX (was Re: 9.0-BETA2 - Kernel Panic on ALIX)

This the key here:

atrtc0:  at port 0x70 irq 8 on isa0
Event timer "RTC" frequency 32768 Hz quality 0

Edgar, are you missing a device entry for the RTC?
Do you have device.hints in /boot ?

GENERIC.hints:hint.atrtc.0.at="isa"
GENERIC.hints:hint.atrtc.0.port="0x70"
GENERIC.hints:hint.atrtc.0.irq="8"

And do you have device atpic? That seems to be what compiles in atrtc.
