It is really close. Seems to be a driver bug

How can I get trace in ddb? I've got no "bt" and I didn't see how to do it in 
"help". Verbouse answer would be great. Don't see "trace" in man ddb too. I 
don't want to miss a chance if it happens again this way.

How can I attach separate disk slice (reserved for Linux) for kernel dump? I 
have 16 Gb RAM so I don't need swap. Is kernel damping every panic?
