    I'm posting a follup to -current, since I get a similar but different problem
    with the 5.1-BETA2 CD.

    With 5.1-BETA2, the boot gets a far as the "Probing devices, please wait"
    message, then hangs. The last debug output on the console is:

    DEBUG: Loading module if_sf.ko (Adaptec AIC-6915 PCI ethernet card)
    module_register: module pci/sf already exists!
    Module pci/sf failed to register: 17
    module_register: module sf/miibus already exists!
    Module sf/miibus failed to register: 17
