Hi,
On the motherboard the watchdog is de-activated. The watchdog timer is
compiled into the kernel.
During the bootup, when the server does a file system check, the server
reboots without fulling booting up.
The cause of the reboot is the watchdog in the kernel.
Guessing that if the watchdog daemon was to start much earlier, it will
prevent the kernel from rebooting. That will also allow more time to do
a file system check. Currently to get the server to boot up, the setting
of "0 0" is used so that it will not do a filesystem check.
How to make the watchdog daemon start much earlier?
