Hiya Folks
Ok, so this is the situation....
....one of my dual G4 Powermacs is throwing up a Kernal Panic a few times a
day, it finishes with "waiting for remote debugger connection"
What is in the crash logs? /Users/~/Library/Logs/Crash Reporter ?
Console log?
So what I want to know is how do I connect remotely to the machine to find
out what it's problem is and how do I fix it?
A kernel panic is a kernel panic, the system is crashed and not accessible remotely.
What it sounds like is something that's got debugging hooks in it is crashing.
Create a new users work as that user for a day or two, that will tell you if it's a system or application problem.
Would I be better off just reinstalling the OS (OS X 10.2.6) this isa time
consuming exercise as I would then have to setup the machine for the user
and install a shedload of software to make it usable in a Design Studio
Environment.
Archive and reinstall of OS 10.2 takes roughly 1/2 hour and everything is preserved. Have the 10.2.6 combo updater handy and you'll be back and running in < 1 hr.
