Hi,
Because Kernel 2.6.34 crashes on my laptop while booting I want to do remote logging the boot process until the system crashes.
Available ports:
Crashing system (laptop with openSUSE): - USB - LPT - Bootloader: GRUB
Remote systems (desktops with openSUSE): - USB - LPT - Serial
Available cable: - USB/Serial (also possible connecting an adaptor Serial to LPT)
Can you please say to me how I have to connect the cable (which port/plug to use on which system) and which commands I have to use on each system. (I know that the USB plug doesn't fit to the LPT port ;-) )
How far along in the boot process is it crashing? It may be that kdump is your best bet.
Sorry for the late reply. With 2.6.34-45 from Kernel:HEAD I have a general crash at ~[0.011...]. But I also see a "end trace" at top of screen ... With the older 2.6.34 and 2.6.35-rc2 I had/have the problem with inserted CD/DVD in most cases before the drm modules (radeon) become loaded. Btw. it seems that I cannot test more kernels before weekend because the idiots (or whatever I should name them) from Moobicent/Vodafone limited my "flatrate" connection to ~8 KB/s this month although they do not have the rights for doing so. So I have to fight also against them ... Johannes -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
