Setting up to debug kernel
I have a fairly new processor and motherboard. I recently upgraded the BIOS on this system and found that the kernel just locks up, everything freezes within a few minutes. I want to see if I can capture any data from the kernel as this happens. My first thought is to try to connect via a serial port or similarly a USB based port and get some sort of continuous stream of log data that I can capture on another machine. I also suppose that I could use SSH to login remotely and likewise grab logs. Regardless I am looking for recommended best approach here. I suspect a driver issue, so I am going to try to boot to runlevel 3 with just basic console (fancy graphics interface) and proceed from there. Any pointers would be appreciated.
