Hello Tim, Saturday, March 6, 2010, 10:19:11 AM, you wrote:If you have the ability, you can try getting the computer to output a log to a serial port, and have another computer monitor it while you crash it. That's one technique to debug a computer that crashes very badly.Thanks for the hint! That's an interesting idea. I do have a "proper" serial port on the motherboard, and I can find another machine with a serial port to monitor it. But...Ask someone else for advise on setting that up, though. It's a very long time since I've played with serial ports, and you probably do need a PC with genuine serial ports to try that.That's the problem. I have no idea on how to configure a machine to output logs to a serial port. And I don't really know what logs should be put there. '/var/log/messages' are being kept on the disk after a reboot, and it doesn't contain anything wrong, in my opinion...
