I will investigate serial console, but I do have physical access to the machine, and I do have a monitor on it, but it reboots so quickly, its just a flash of the panic, and the system reboots. :( I cannot make out a thing exept for "12" which I assume is part of ``Fatal trap 12'' - something. I do have DDB compiled in, but I will leave the ``poking around'' for the hackers. :P Jaco
