While building the atlas port, the machine crashed. Opening up console after restarting the machine showed me two crash reports for xprobe_3dnow some time before the machine crash. I attach the various crash reports.

Note: the crash report files *_localhost.crash are located in /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ Someone should probably also report this to Apple. Also, stuff like http://communities.intel.com/thread/4968 may be relevant.

This crashes are normal and part of Atlas configure process to determine on which processor it runs. It could do that with a CPUID instruction, but, for whatever reason, it does not.

How can a machine crash be a normal part of a build process? How do I finally install ATLAS since it will keep crashing?

To clarify, the problem is that after the crash, many of the commands do not work on terminal, so the machine is unusable and I have to restart the computer. Why does that happen?

It should not be possible for a port install, no matter how bad it fails, to cause your computer to require a restart. Are you sure that just closing the Terminal window and opening a new one would not have solved it? What exactly do you mean when you say "the machine crashed"?

I think I tried another terminal window. Besides, I tried to log out and log back in. I couldn't even do that, so I had to power the machine down.

This crashes are normal, they are part of the auto-detection system Atlas uses to know what kind of assembler it can use. It happens to everybody who builds the port. This is irrelevant to any OS crash.
