This is on an iMac bondi (G3 233MHz) that was running MAC OS 8.1.

ideas?

Aargh I though I had that fixed in RC1 :( :( Didn't test -RELEASE on a G3 :( It's in pmap_bootstrap when doing the cut-over from OpenFirmware's management of VM to FreeBSD's. I thought it was instruction cache-alignment related but maybe not.

Would you be able to try RC1 ?

but I can't interact with the debugger at all.

The keyboard doesn't work with the debugger that early in the boot since it's USB and hasn't been probed yet. I've thought in the past about modifying syscons so that the PROM could be used until USB is probed, but it's not pretty. However, it does allow 'boot -d' and diagnosis for these types of panics.

later,

Peter.
