At 00:16 our normally very stable NetBSD 1.1 machine (Pentium-100, PCI
motherboard, 64Mb RAM, Adaptec 2940W and 4GB SCSI HD) panic'ed, and stopped.

Although I got it back up in minutes, I'd like to better understand
what really happened.

On the console was:

Aug 14 00:16:27
start=0, len=1756, fs=/usr/local
panic: ffs_alloccg: map corrupted
Stopped at: _Debugger+)x4: leave
db>

Questions:

Q1: How can we prevent the kernel debugger prompt and just have the
machine dump core and reboot by itself?  I tried rebuilding the kernel
but can't build one without the debugger, it has unresolved symbol
linker errors.  I'd really like to avoid having to drive to the office
at 00:16 local time just to press a reset button :-)

Q2: What really happened, is there a fix in netbsd-current I should
look for?

Many thanks,

Jonathan
