That looks like a system abort 53760 !!! Never seen such a high-order SA
number, so I don't know what it is, much less what caused it. Without a
memory dump, there's probably not much we can do further.

The way SA number are decodes is as follows (taken from the sequence you
wrote down) :

01D2 <- This one ...
0200 <- ... and this one are combined to compute the SA number
DEAD <- This is really a hex code. A convenient one, may I say
BF00 <- This translates into something like system halt 0

So your system abort number really is a concatenation of registers (01) =
hex D2 and (02) = hex 00, which is hex D200, which translates into decimal
absolute 53760, or -11776, assuming we have a sign bit somewhere. Anyway, I
don't have the slightest idea what either of these values could possibly
mean.
