From BUGS section of dumpon(1):
Dumpon currently allows only devices with minor number 1 to be used as
dump devices.
% ls -l /dev/*wd0b
crw-r----- 1 root operator 3, 1 30 Mar 1999 /dev/rwd0b
brw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 1 30 Mar 1999 /dev/wd0b
% ls -l /dev/*wd0s1b
crw-r----- 1 root wheel 3, 0x00020001 2 Wrz 11:36 /dev/rwd0s1b
brw-r----- 1 root wheel 0, 0x00020001 2 Wrz 11:36 /dev/wd0s1b
Shouldn't be /dev/wd0b used as a dump device?
Also, try using serial console to catch panic messages.
