memtest86+ and the bios memory test feature.  Both reported no errors.  I
finally was able to get it to boot and install by breaking to the loader
prompt and typing "kern.smp.disabled=1".  But the installed system also
panics at the same point during boot and the only way to get it to boot is
by disabling smp at the loader prompt.

Please update your BIOS/UEFI and try again.
