In former times, the Linux kernel tried to sync in the panic function. (If the panic did not happen in interrupt context) Unfortunately this had severe side effects in cases where the panic was triggered by file system block device code or any other part which is necessary for syncing. In most cases the call trace never made it onto disk anyway. So currently the kernel does not support saving a panic. Apart from using a serial console, you might have a look at several kexec/kdump/lkcd tools where people are working on being able to dump the memory of a paniced kernel. cheers Christian - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
