I've had problems with write caching causing the last few messages to be lost after a panic*, so if you don't see anything suspicious, maybe turn off write caching with 'hdparm -W 0 /dev/whatever' for long enough to reproduce the crash. Just in case. * This was really only a problem because I was using a flash-based drive (not USB, but for an embedded system) with *really* aggressive caching. I don't know how bad the problem might be on a more ordinary drive. — Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
