I was just reading the FAQ on http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.en.html and noticed this: --8<-- 5.5. When GNU/Hurd crashes, GNU Mach automatically reboots. Is there anyway I can make it pause so I can write down the error? {MB} Pass the `-H' option to init (add it to the boot command line), and `init' will tell Mach to enter the kernel debugger instead to rebooting it. At the debugger prompt (`db>'), you can type `reboot' any time to reboot the system. --8<-- Maybe that helps in your case?
