So I take it machine is unusable after freeze? I found that the easiest
way to get Kernel oops output in these situations is to set up Linux to
use a serial port console (I've heard this can be done with network
hardware as well, although I doubt its as reliable). If you have another
computer you can connect via a serial port, look at
linux/Documentation/serial-console.txt in the kernel source which has
some information on how this is done. You may have to recompile your
kernel to get "Console on Serial Port" option enabled. Once you trap the
oops output on other computer you can save to a file, reboot your frozen
machine and then run the oops through ksymoops. Hope that helps.
