<p dir="ltr">The nicest way to catch kernel panic info is the net console feature, but if your network card isn't supported, another nice way is to run kermit in screen on a second system connected by a serial cable, configuring the target system's kernel to use the serial port as a console. </p>

Does anyone have any pointers as how to trap the problem? I'm guessing it's a kernel crash. It's running stock Debian 8, 64 bit, kernel 2.6.32.<br>

CPU is a 4 core, Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J1900 @ 1.99GHz with 4 Gb memory. I'm running memtest now.<br>

We have discuss did in he past but lets go one more time. What would you<br>
get for media box at home? I had different dedicated media players and<br>
now I have windows PC which is no longer capable with running my kids<br>
games :) While the E8400 CPU is capable of running 1080p content and the<br>
box itself is relatively low noise for a desktop, still the box is huge<br>
and power consumption is also factor.<br>
<br>
So I'm thinking of going green of sort.<br>
<br>
I have one multimedia android 4.0.4 box which has Ethernet and WiFi.<br>
WiFi sucks big time and cannot hold connection. Also some apps works<br>
fine some does not when playing multimedia content.<br>
<br>
Idea is to get one of very small factor PC. I was looking at Zotac mini<br>
PC forms.<br>
<br>
Which one would you pick. Brand, form factor, CPU/GPU, even running OS ?<br>
