netbooting -current on ThinkNIC

Hello!

With the correct DHCP setup, etc. I managed to get it to download
pxeboot over tftp. pxeboot mounts the root filesystem over NFS properly
and loads the kernel.
 
However, when it tries to boot the said kernel, the whole box freezes up
(before even displaying the kernel info or FreeBSD Copyright). My only
guess is, I'm screwing up the kernel config (below)...

Did anyone else succeed in booting a reasonably fresh -current on a
ThinkNIC?

Thanks!
