>Environment:
Shuttle SS51 computer with Pentium 4 Northwood (533Mhz)
        The Shuttle system is a small form factor motherboard and case
        combination that uses an SiS 651/962L chipset.  The system is
        using DDR333 ram, the onboard IDE with UltraDMA disabled, and
        a ATI 8500 AIW for video.  Due to needing firewire support I
        previously had linux installed on the system, and it was able
        to run for extended periods of time, so I don't believe there
        is any hardware interoperability issues.

>Description:
        I downloaded the ISOs and checked the MD5s before and after
        writing the data to the CDs.  When I try to install anything
        other than minimal the install fails (usually while trying to
        pkg_add perl.)  If I do the minimal install passwd fails to
        run when trying to set the root password, but the install
        finishes.  When I boot into the system after that I'm forced
        into single user mode, and when I try to run /bin/sh it cannot
        execute it.

>How-To-Repeat:
        Install FreeBSD 5.0 i386 on a SS51 based system.

>Fix:
        None that I know of.  Could it be possible that the kernel is
        somehow misidentifying the processor, activating some processor
        specific extensions, and loading the executables into memory
        in a way that the chip doesn't understand?

 I tried installing FreeBSD 4.5 on the system, (I didn't have anything
 newer laying around, and I didn't want to download 4.8.)  And I was
 able to run programs once the initial copying was done.  I enabled
 Linux compatibilty and setup X, along with setting root's passwd.
 
 The install finished sucessfully then when I booted into it I got this:
 
 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
 fault virtual address	= 0x0
 fault code		= supervisor read, page not present
 instruction pointer	= 0x8 :0xc01b1260
 stack pointer		= 0x10:0xc04b8fec
 frame pointer		= 0x10:0xc04b8ff8
 code segment		= base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
 			= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
 processor eflags	= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
 current process		= Idle
 interrupt mask		= net tty bio cam
 trap number		= 12
 panic: page fault
 Uptime: 0s
 
 I hope this helps, I'd be willing to try a later version than 4.5.  I
 was thinking about trying 4.8 anyway since it has firewire support.

You need to upgrade to 5.1 to get support for this SiS chipset.
