I've certainly seen linux/ppc do that (by default) but not m68k... >From Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt -- "panic: The value in this file represents the number of seconds the kernel waits before rebooting on a panic. When you use the software watchdog, the recommended setting is 60." There's also, sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=1 (I seem to recall that RHEL sets this by default.) Generating an NMI might be another approach for remote reboot -- # sysctl -a | grep panic error: permission denied on key 'net.ipv4.route.flush' kernel.panic = 0 kernel.panic_on_oops = 0 kernel.unknown_nmi_panic = 0 kernel.panic_on_unrecovered_nmi = 0 kernel.panic_on_io_nmi = 0 vm.panic_on_oom = 0 Finn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-68k-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
