No, I haven't used netconsole, but I do have a frame buffer. There have been a few very early kernel crashes during the porting from v2.6 to v4.15. All of them could be identified to a single commit by bisection, and then it was easy to find a solution to proceed, fortunately. Eventually I'd like to get kexec working. I suspect it could be somewhat tricky to debug though. Fredrik
