I'm trying to debug a problem with a system booting with root on NFS. I would have attached a serial console long ago and solved the problem, but this box doesn't have a serial port ... what's the alternative for getting access to those early messages? On start-up, the system is kicked into the emergency shell, and although I can easily mount the nfs root, when I try to resume the start-up, the system just crashes.
There's also kdump, which uses kexec to start a secondary kernel when the first crashes, allowing to save system logs and core, and perform analysis on them. -- Regards, Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
