The idea of using watchdog timers work very well since those are
usually accessed directly (just map the memory over PCI or whatever
bus you have).
Those timers start the countdown once they set an initial value and
then you have to set them all along the life cycle. One have to estimate
the time

Ok, here is my take on the matter:
First of all, if unattended kernel replacements or RAID root FS are not
important to you, GRUB gobbles up LILO any day of the week. It is faster
to load, more resiliant to configuration errors, and more secure when
you try to lock down the config using boot pas

Reading the docs, this should not work. "Fallback" is good for a
situation where either the kernel, initrd or root device cannot be found

Not only is this not a practical solution, it will not even work.
First, it's not practical because in order to put a modem into any
modern machine, I will need to find a modem supported by Linux. Most
often, this will typically not be a hardware modem, but a software modem
that has Linux driver

Thanks Did, Meir. That did the trick beutifully, plus I'm now aware of
"man bootparam".

In embedded systems, the need to reboot on panic (or more correct, when
the system gets stuck) exists.
It is being met by watchdog timers, which cause reset unless the
software resets them frequently enough. Several microcontrollers
implement watchdog timers.

Hi all,
Does anyone know of a mechanism that will allow me to have a kernel
automatically reboot on panic?
When remote upgrading a kernel, the most common problems have to do with
either initrd creation or some other form of not finding the root
partition. Once the root partition is mounted, it
