Additional info:

When booting with the card in, it seems to detect the card fine, but the 
lockup reappears when I ifconfig the correct ssid and wepkey for the 
local Wi-Fi location.  (I say this because I thought I had it working, 
but then realized I had a case mismatch in the SSID) :( 

Also, I noticed the "sis0: watchdog timeout" issue goes away when I boot 
the system w/ verbose logging - for now - is there a loader.conf tweak 
to automatically select that at the boot menu?

Best Wishes - Peter
