This is what I have from our second kernel panic:

Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd: panic: vref used where vget required, vp 0xfffffc004eccab20
Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd: syncing disks... 35 34 33 32 30 28 26 26 24 24 23 21 19 19 18 17 17 15 14 13 12 11 10 10 9 9 9 8 7 7 7
7 7 6 6 6 5 4 3 3 3 2 2 2 2 1 1 giving up
Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd:

Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd: rebooting...
Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd:
Aug 29 15:11:46 sdf /netbsd: [ preserving 203744 bytes of netbsd ELF symbol table ]

Does anyone have any tips for me on how to figure what I can do with this
info, or better yet.. and quick docu on how to use the debugger to get
more information?

There were about 152 users on at the time of the panic.
