netconsole should be more quick:
* one more box with ethernet card
* CONFIG_NETCONSOLE=y
* CONFIG_ {your NIC driver} =y
* on crashing box add the following line to the kernel boot options

netconsole=@src-ip/eth0,9353@dst-ip/dst-MAC

where scr-ip -- IP of crashing box
eth0 -- interface on crashing box
9353 -- destination port (for netcat to listen on target box)
dst-ip -- IP of a box which collect logs
dst-MAC -- MAC of the interface on destination box

* on destination box run netcat

nc -u -l -p 9353 &>1.log

[* add ignore_loglevel on crashing box if paranoid]

Now reboot crashing box and reproduce the bug, chances are high that it
will send oops over network.
