You could boot from the install CD and abort the boot countdown by
hitting some key other than enter. If you then enter "boot -a",
you'll be asked for the root (probably wd0a) and dump device (probably
wd0b) and the path to init (/sbin/init). So, you can use a kernel on
a CD or floppy to boot your system into normal multi-user mode (or
single-user). The crash dump should be in /var/log/messages, /kern/mbuf
or /var/run/dmesg.boot after that. This should work if either the kernel
is compiled or configured not to drop into ddb or if you type "sync" at
the ddb prompt.
