This is what my screen looked like after I crashed it from ttymode:

NMI ... going to debugger
kernel: non-maskable interrupt trap, code=o
Stopped at     _vm_object_colapse+0x194: movl   0x1c(%exi),%edx
db> t
_vm_object_collapse(f874f580,106,f8768700,51000,f8766300) at _vm_object_collaps
e+0x194
_vm_fault(f8768500,51000,3,0) at _vm_fault + 0x3be
_trap()at _trap+0x489
--- trap(number 6) ---
0xbc11:
db>





	And then, when I typed "c", it continued to boot.

From page 5 of Mandelbrot's *The Fractal Geometry of Nature:

	Scientists will (I am sure) be surprised and delighted that quite a
few shapes they had to call grainy, hydralike, in-between, pimply, POCKY,
ramified, seaweedy, strange, tangled, torturous, wiggly, wispy, wrinkled,
and the like, can henceforth be approached in rigorous and vigorous
quantitative fashion.
