Hi Alexander and John,
the Systems seems to work OK now! Thanks for the fast responses!
The hw.physmem works 1a; put it into loader.conf (after entering manual
for the first boot) and it really works fine.

I finished two buildworld/buildkernel/installworld/installkernel now,
running cvsup of ports and also some other tasks in parallel - no
Problem. Now I put my "normal" Disk back in and will try a portupgrade.
Well, it does work OK for me now (it seems). However, is there a chance
to get this problem circumvented (in case its a Hardware-Bug) or solved
(in case there is something not working OK in a driver) or maybe even
both? If so, could I help? How?
Cheers,
_ralf_
