In reguards to seeing messages on minicom, what logger do you have installed? Can you just shovel kernel messages over to ttyS01? eg sudo tailf /var/log/kernel ttyS01 On 6/20/05, Andy Stewart <andystewart@comcast.net> wrote:

HI everybody,
Perhaps I have found some light in this tunnel.
I upgraded to the 2.6.12 kernel (yeah, I know, that just changed the entire experiment) and turned off "CPU freq scaling" and "PCI hotplug support" since I didn't think I needed either of those. I built the 2.6.12 kernel and played beer_golf 5 times in a row and the system DID NOT lockup. I'm not sure why those features were enabled in the first place. (I should probably go back to 2.6.11.11 <http://2.6.11.11> and disable these two features and see if that has any positive effect.)
I'm far too much of a pessimist to claim victory, but perhaps my luck is turning for the better. My fingers are still crossed. I am (extremely) cautiously optimistic.
I thought I'd mention this in case somebody reads this thread in the future and maybe, just maybe, this tidbit helps. Besides, I've read a lot of threads where the problem is described in detail, but the answer is never forthcoming(!).
Later,
Andy
