I think if you don't have any kdb options turned on, then a panic should automatically store a crashdump to swap, then reboot the machine. If that's not working, perhaps it locks up trying to store the dump? If the hardware has a watchdog timer, enabling that might be the best way to ensure a reboot on any kind of crash or hang. -- Ian > On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 6:45 AM, Sami Halabi <sodyn...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Its only a kernel option?
