The problem also appears if I manually stop watchdogd. What happens is that I get a panic: watchdog timeout a short while after the watchdogd process has been stopped. I used '/etc/rc.d/watchdogd stop' to stop it which should allow watchdogd to tell the kernel to stop checking. My workaround will of course be to disable the watchdog but it is a nice feature to have working. -- Med venlig hilsen Christian Laursen
