Ndis driver causes kernel problems on boot

I created a driver for my rtl8187 SE in my MSI Wind netbook using ndisgen.
I placed the driver , rtl8187Se_sys.ko in /boot/modules
I added rtl8187Se_sys_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf
I can kldload rtl8187Se_sys and everything seems OK.
If I reboot, however, I get the following error during boot (truncated
to what I think is the relevant info);
Fata trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
fault virtual address = 0xf00032d4
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
...
current process = 12 (swi4: clock)
I am a little lost at this point. If I start in bootloader prompt mode,
I type;
OK> unload
OK> load /boot/kernel/kernel
OK> boot
and everything works fine.
Any and all help is appreciated.
