i'm not sure what tool you're using, but the image is a multiple of
512 bytes long.

        ; </n/atom/ftp/usbinstamd64.bz2 >/tmp/usbinstamd64 bunzip2
        ; ls -ltr /tmp
        --rw-rw-r-- M 788 quanstro quanstro 524288000 Dec 18 15:48 
/tmp/usbinstamd64
        ; echo 524288000 % 512 | hoc
        0

perhaps something got corrupted.

the crash dump is good information but in this case the pc does not appear
to be valid, so i don't see what's wrong yet.
