System: NetBSD osprey.buzzard.freeserve.co.uk 1.6F NetBSD 1.6F (OSPREY) #44: Wed Aug 21 20:59:30 BST 2002 rearnsha@osprey.buzzard.freeserve.co.uk:/usr/src/sys/arch/cats/compile/OSPREY cats
Architecture: arm
Machine: cats
>Description:
	After a panic, typing sync, or trying to continue, hangs the machine 
	without dumping a kernel to the swap partition.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Make the kernel panic, type either 'sync' or 'c' machine will try to 
	sync disks and dump the kernel to swap, but will instead hang, 
	requiring a machine reset.
>Fix:
	Unknown.
