https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216123 --- Comment #4 from Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> --- (In reply to Kevin Bowling from comment #2) > Can you set 'sysctl debug.debugger_on_panic=1' and see if you can get a better idea > where it dies from the db> prompt or by switching to kgdb from that? I couldn't figure out how to do that using the Open Firmware boot loader --- it doesn't understand sysctl, AFAICT. I tried the -d kernel switch but it didn't change anything. This machine lacks a serial port, which makes traditional kernel debugging difficult. I noticed that its Open Firmware version does support telnet connections, though. Is there a way to use that facility for a kernel debug console? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
