asks for help in tracking down a `cp read fault' machine check.
Look at the program counter (`pc') value and see in which routine
you were running. That can be a useful clue; e.g., if you are in
dmf.c, it is probably a DMF (or of course all the access paths
all the way out to the device). The `va/viba' register gives the
virtual address the machine was working on when it got the read
fault.
