Have you ever tried it? Current state is that the JS20 hangs after panic, simply because it calls into the hypervisor (or whatever). To reproduce: mkdir ../O-os-term cp arch/powerpc/configs/pseries_defconfig ../O-os-term/.config yes '' | make -kj6 O=../O-os-term zImage scp -4pr ../O-os-term/arch/powerpc/boot/zImage [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tftpboot/js20 boot /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1 debug panic=1 root=/dev/sdx42 Whoever relies on the string passing to the HMC can boot with panic=0 or use some sysctl to write to /proc/sys/kernel/panic So, please restore the panic_timeout check. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
