Not completely what you ask for, but... > sysctl -w ddb.onpanic=0 (or even -1) Well, notice that the original post writes of panicking if "there is no console device found", which sounds to me like something that happens during boot, much earlier than /etc/sysctl.conf can affect. I'd say, rather, DDB_ONPANIC=0 in the kernel config and then ddb.onpanic=1 during boot. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
