In fact, EHCI USB support seems to hang. I disabled it and it booted to the same point as before and kernel paniced. FYI, the driver also didn't compile cleanly. I had to add a member to a struct to get it to compile correctly. I'll get you specifics on that if needed but it's very easy to spot if you attempt to compile the driver. Where should I go from here? I can work on getting the info from the panic but since the system is almost dead at that point cutting and pasting is not an option.
