Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own. To receive this Complete Guide absolutely free.
I read this thing Add the following to /etc/sysctl.conf: kernel.panic=20 Is this for is there is a GPU failure for whatever reason, it will auto-restart the whole rig? Until I figure out whats wrong, I need to at least have it auto-restart when something fails, because restarting does fix it, and rarely needs a hard reboot.
The only thing is, if this is all the code I need, I did it but it doesnt seem to be working. I actually put a 7 in there like this kernel.panic=7 but that shouldnt matter right? And I put it in the last line of the file at the very bottom, with a line break after the last #. The spacing matters, use no spaces. There is also a 'panic on oops' flag which you can, and should set. These are 'modifiable' in sysctl.conf, but they can be set in your kernel boot line. I don't know the sysctl.conf variations as well.
Review the kernel parameters documentation, search for the term panic and review the notes describing what the system should do for each flag. I've put it in with no space, still nothing.
Your latter info, I have no idea what thats about. I used to use DOS and BASIC but I hardly know anything in Linux. Sorry, I am really not a linux user. Well, this is pretty technical stuff you're asking about here. At this point I'd recommend you do some research about how Linux boots before you proceed.
The answers have been given; however if you're unfamiliar with how the kernel boots and how to modify your boot parameters, then a quick answer here isn't the best option. If you're really determined, I recommend you read about the bootloader, grub; and learn how it manages boot parameters. Mind you; installing and using Linux is fine and sounds like you've done that. At this point you're trying to tune how the kernel operates, but looking for a singular answer without fully understanding the scope of the topic. Therefore my best recommendation is to either leave it alone or learn about grub so that when you do attempt boot option changes, you understand what you're doing and how to deal with it if you happen to make a mistake.

I understand what u r saying. Let me elaborate on why I need to do this.
I have a BAMT rig setup for mining. It runs on Debian, but is stripped for one purpose only.
However, when there is a hardware failure (99.9% GPU), it crashes and then it stop the whole process. I am troubleshooting and trying to find out whats really going on about this, but its not easy and not quick. Meanwhile, I lose $$$ every second the machine is down. So to me (and suggested by others in similar situations who know more linux than me), a 'decent' bandaid is: 1. Set up an auto-reboot whenever there is a hardware failure (kernel panic) or 2.
Set up an auto-reboot every 10 (whatever #) minutes so it preempts any failure I know these solutions are not very professional, but its better than losing $$$ all day every day while I have invested time and money in the rig and setup. I was hoping I can just input a few lines in a file or two in the system that will help me achieve this until I find a permanent solution. If I had all the time in the world, I would love to learn linux properly and thoroughly. Unfortunately this project is is less than 10% of all the other stuff I need to do to sustain myself. I hope that clears things up a bit, thanks.
Hey Fellas, I've wasted several days trying to ameliorate this problem but to no avail. Hopefully there's a knight in shining mac aluminum that can present a solution. I attempted to install the Beta 6 update as anyone else would but the install froze midway. So I booted into recovery and attempted the same reinstall. Result: same problem. Shortly thereafter, I made an El Capitan Beta 1 Boot Disk and attempted to install it over this incomplete El Capitan Beta 6 system. Result: Kernel Panic ( I've attached a photo of the screen).
I've done some research online and it seems that virtualbox and syncmate (among other 3rd party extensions) are the root causes of this kernel fault. Forgot admin password on mac. I have syncmate installed somewhere on the OS. Now I can access internet recovery mode but all the other methods of startup don't seem to work. I also can't access my 'Macintosh HD' using terminal in recovery mode to try and delete these culprit 'kext' files or whatever else needs to be done on the hard-drive. I would be most grateful to anyone that can offer a solution.
