Hi!

I managed to get the boot-process past the ACPI-part by adding 
similar lines like above (MacBookPro7,1) to the FreeBSD HEAD branch (as of 26 April 19:00 CEST). Made a release iso like this: http://romana.now.ie/writing/customfreebsdiso.html

But now the boot-process panics at a later stage in the process and it looks like this:

Any pointers?
