The problem you describe has not shown up, to my recolection, on the
785 here.  But I do know how to get a dump from the console.  Proceed
thusly:

	^P
	HALT
	START <address of doadump()>

doadump() is the routine in the kernel that produces dumps on panics
and you can restart the kernel there when the system hangs.  To find
the address of doadump() use nm(1).  We have configured all of the
systems a Tektronix so that they have doadump() at the same address
(0xe00) which makes life a bit simpler.
