Can you type "continue" and have everything "go" from here? I had this
happen yesterday. (I netboot my machine, but it's possible your problem is
similar.) I was able to "continue" from ddb until I corrected the issue.
The solution for me was to make sure my ofwboot.elf was up to date. I moved
in a newly-built copy, and my iMac thenceforth booted without interruption
or undue complaint.
