Subject: Setting up to debug kernel
Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2019 18:14:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <083c0f9f-79e8-683b-60d2-ecd5ac367811@charter.net> (raw)
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
