Thank you all who answered my question.  Since i don't see it posted 
here, and some might appreciate the reply I got, if you include a "-c" 
during the boot (with fbsdboot before the -D kernel), the boot sequence 
will let you configure the devices.

I've gotten that far, and configure my device properly (matcd...only 
needs the "matcd port 0x230", but tried pretty much everything) but it 
still doesn't work.  Is it possible that this kernel doesn't support the 
new version.  I know I had a problem with this with Linux and I had to 
compile a newer kernel.
