Setting up to debug kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a fairly new processor and motherboard. I recently upgraded the BIOS on this system and found that the kernel just locks up, everything freezes within a few minutes. I want to see if I can capture any data from the kernel as this happens.

My first thought is to try to connect via a serial port or similarly a USB based port and get some sort of continuous stream of log data that I can capture on another machine.

I also suppose that I could use SSH to login remotely and likewise grab logs.

Regardless I am looking for recommended best approach here. I suspect a driver issue, so I am going to try to boot to runlevel 3 with just basic console (fancy graphics interface) and proceed from there.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Jerry
