Set the memory size of your machine to 8Mb, boot 3.2-STABLE on it and
compile emacs 20.4 . When it says

	"Dumping under names emacs and emacs-20.4.1"

the machine freezes. No disk activity, no response to keyboard other
than 'No debugger included in kernel.

Various details of this machine:

I will try again with the debugger included. Takes however a while to
compile a kernel with only 8Mb of memory :-)
