A good question. I haven't actively tried to induce a kernel panic for many years, so I'd suggest asking the experts in the osol-discuss or osol-code mailing lists. Also, there's a program out there called "crashme" that tries to crash a system by throwing random input at it: http://crashme.codeplex.com/Wikipage Hope this helps -- Volker -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Volker A.
