My CD-ROM drive will hang the system when booted from a kernel with no
debugging options enabled.  Try booting a kernel with the following
debugging options enabled.

makeoptions     DEBUG=-g                # Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols

# Debugging for use in -current   
 options         KDB                     # Enable kernel debugger support.   
 options         DDB                     # Support DDB.   
 options         GDB                     # Support remote GDB.   
 options         INVARIANTS              # Enable calls of extra
sanity checking
 options         INVARIANT_SUPPORT       # Extra sanity checks of
internal structures, required by INVARIANTS
 options         WITNESS                 # Enable checks to detect
deadlocks and cycles
 options         WITNESS_SKIPSPIN        # Don't run witness on
spinlocks for speed
