Very Computer

Hi,

I am trying to write some kernel code. I am using 'printk' function to
put some debugging information into the log files.But sometimes, when
the kernel hangs there is no debug information logged at all. I am
unable to find out where the error is. Is there anything I need to do to
enable this or is there anyway I can flush the messages or something.

I have tried including the line

kern.alert
        /var/log/kermsgs

in syslog.conf file. (I am actually using KERN_ALERT for printing
messages also)

TIA,
Karthik

Are you runing X? Don't.
Do you have two computers? Use a serial console.
