FreeBSD 6.1-BETA2/FreeBSD 5.5-BETA2 Available

[Vivek Khera]

I'm gonna take a wild guess at ACPI problems.  I have one system on  
which I have to disable ACPI timer for anything >= 6.0-RELEASE.

To disable it, at the boot menu, select 6 to get a prompt, then type

set debug.acpi.disabled="timer"
boot

and see if it still locks up.
