Thank you. I'm using kgdb now, and I get the following error:

$ kgdb -r /dev/cuaa0 kernel.debug
[GDB will not be able to debug user-mode threads:

The two servers (the panic one and the one running kgdb) are identical,
except the one running kgdb is not using PAE. The kernel.debug file is
identical to the remote server however.
