Of course, this depends on having symbols.  If you don't, you can
always "mach prom", "sync" ("g 0" for older PROMs), and "c" from the
ddb> prompt for the resulting "panic: prom sync command", and let the
panic code sync the disks for you.

Of course, you don't get to return to ddb after that...which I suppose
is just another reason why it's nice to have symbols. :)
