Hi,
I'm having a problem with a 1.2.13 system in a place that I can't get to, and the people there aren't too bright (Not to mention there is no monitor or keyboard on it!).
Recently the system appears to kernel panic and lock up. I'm not sure why, but its probably a disk problem. Anyway, the system ends up hung and someone needs to identify it and reboot. (Strange occurance last night..... Locked at 11:30 and then came back by itself at 2:30 with alot of tcp bogon errors). Is there a patch I can make to the kernel so that instead of a panic it will go a complete reboot?
I'm rebuilidng the machine on new hardware and 2.0.22 so the fix doesn't need to be pretty. I'm no kernel hacker though.
