have you tried disabling APIC  (not ACPI, but APIC):

in /boot/loader.conf.local, add
hint.apic.0.disabled="1"

i think you can do

set hint.apic.0.disabled="1"

from the boot prompt and see if it'll work.

If you find a solution and become attached to it, the solution may become your next problem.

I speak for myself, not my employer. Contents may be hot. Slippery when wet. Reading disclaimers makes you go blind. Writing them is worse. You have been Warned.
