I've got the same issue on a ASUS Eee PC 1015PED. In my case,
installation went fine installing from a live USB drive using bsd.rd
but when I tried to run the laptop itself I got shutdown due to
critical temperature.

My solution: disable the acpitz driver.
You can either do it every time you boot by running bsd -c and then
typing disable acpitz, or you can use config and have it disable it
there.

With that, everything else seems to work reasonable. No wifi, but I'll
wait til the drivers get developed.

On that note though, where should I send a dmesg so that people who
want to work on it can have the information. Also, what other info
would be useful to developers?
