Subject:   pause on kernel panic how-to
Message-ID:  <200410151928.14942.o1b6@tiscali.it>

Hello folks!
since I am tracking RELENG_5 (just for fun), sometimes I get a kernel panic 
while in graphics mode (X + KDE). I can recognize a panic due to the fact 
that the mouse freezes and hitting randomly on the keyboard has no effects... 
until I randomly hit the Enter key: the system then reboots...

Is there a way to instruct the kernel to switch in text mode when a panic 
occurs? Or to avoid the automatic reboot + the Enter key?

Thanks!
