Does anyone know that if the watchdog timer is enabled, will a kernel panic still allow the watchdog to reset? Since it's not an external watchdog, I wasn't sure what would happen.
I've seen some cases where the kernel will panic and completely "brick" my device until it is manually rebooted. I haven't had a chance to debug why the kernel panics at what seems like random times, so I need to do some investigation. However, my band-aid to the problem would be to enable the watchdog timer so that it will automatically reboot. I would just try it, but I'm having a hard time reproducing a kernel panic. Also, on a side note, how do you change the default duration of 60 seconds? It seems like this info would be all over the internet, but I haven't found anywhere that talks about this. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
