I think Michael wrote that he can load it from loader without problems, but it panics when kldloading it.  Debugging in that case might be easy.  Just set a dumpdev and write out a dump which then can be analyzed with kgdb.  A `bt' in kgdb is usually the first step.

Apart from that, my guess is "contiguous DMA memory".
