Much thanks to:

Iain Barker
Martin Andersen
Dr. Thomas Blinn

The consensus that it's a more or less fatal hardware fault.
Fortunately, we decommissioned a pair of AS1200s in the past year and
still had them in storage, so I had the spares I needed to keep this one
going.

Original question:
> Has anyone seen the error "IIC Bus busy" on powerup?
>
> I am getting this error perhaps 6-8 times in a row, followed by the
> message "Halt has been asserted. Boot is not possible." and then I am
> left with a console prompt.
>
> The system is an AlphaServer 1200.
