What do you see before this?  Anything like:

	CPU 0 booting

	resetting all I/O buses
	(boot dka0.0.0.6.1 -flags a)
	block 0 of dka0.0.0.6.1 is a valid boot block
	reading 14 blocks from dka0.0.0.6.1
	bootstrap code read in
	base = 1ac000, image_start = 0, image_bytes = 1c00
	initializing HWRPB at 2000
	initializing page table at 27ff0000
	initializing machine state
	setting affinity to the primary CPU
	jumping to bootstrap code
	Console: SRM firmware console
	VMS PAL rev: 0x1001100010130
	OSF PAL rev: 0x100100002012c
	Switch to OSF PAL code succeeded.

	FreeBSD/alpha SRM disk boot, Revision 0.1
	(root@boil.cs.duke.edu, Mon Aug 16 18:17:10 EDT 1999)
	Memory: 655360 k
	> autoboot 3
	Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt.



At which point in the above process does the machine halt?
