I'm trying to get a backtrace. I've built a kernel with all the right bits,
set up dumpdir and dumpdev in /etc/rc.conf, etc...Apparently savecore doesn't
like writing to the swap partition (/dev/ar0s1b). I can get to the ddb promp,
obtain a trace, panic the machine, etc...But I don't think I can obtain a good
core without putting another hard drive in the machine, which isn't going to
happen till sometime next week...Is there anything I can provide from the ddb
prompt?

Thanks,
Josh
