How to force a panic

[Marc Ramirez]

Sorry, folks, I'm being a dunce.  I'm trying to get a coredump, and it's been 
a while for me.

I'm currently fetching and building 5.3RC1, but in the meantime, I'm running 

FreeBSD laptop.ghostmrami.com 5.3-BETA7 FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7 #0: Thu Oct 21 
18:46:32 EDT 2004     
mrami at laptop.ghostmrami.com:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/LAPTOPOLDCARD  i386

supped on 

drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  512 Oct 11 15:10 /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/

When I break into ddb, I type in panic, it says it's panicking, and then just 
freezes.  diediedie doesn't seem to be there, either.

Is there a new/better way to force a dump?
