Excerpts from FreeBSD-Alpha: 15-Mar-99 New bootblocks by pa...@originative.co.uk
halt code = 2 kernel stack not valid halt PC = 184ec
I had this same problem, too, making it worse was that I had played around with my boot.conf and guess what, unload was halting (in the older bootblocks, wasn't this recently fixed?)
One good replacement to fixit disks I found was that the emergecy shell, while lacking ls (use echo *) did have ifconfig, ppp and mount_nfs if you happen to have a machine nearby to stick an alpha dist on for binaries. The way I got my machine to boot doens't seem like more than luck (replaced bootblocks and booted of an old kernel). Just wanted to share the fixit trick for all who may come to need it.
