Ok, I got 5.3-BETA1 going thanks to all the tips I've seen so far, I finally got 
it to boot after following the advice to add "device apic" and figuring out the 
new sound device setup, I did remove the debugging options, not sure if that was 
a factor but I trimmed a bit and luckily it booted after removing that and 
adding apic.

Now I am trying to load the nvidia driver on boot up and it panics if I attempt 
to load it at boot up. Anyone else gotten this far yet? Do I need to upgrade 
to the new Nvidia driver I've been reading about? I've kept the loader.conf as 
follows (boots with this not sure if any of this is still needed):

linux_load="YES"
agp_load="YES"

Had nvidia_load="YES" but that crashed it.

Thanks,

Jorge
