I finally have a hang from the machine I am observing (and setup according to TN2118). It is a PowerMac G4 DP400MHz. Since I am not on location I will give instructions to press the NMI button to cause the kernel dump to the kdumpd server. Just to be sure, the NMI button is the convex one that one "usually" presses on a PMac G4 to restart it, isn't it!? I ask as one method listed in Kernel Programming, namely "command, option, control, and shift keys and hit escape" does not work on a bluetooth keyboard (just tested on the mini at my side). Perhaps it would work on a usb keyboard (and I might try on the one I am writing on..).

To the curious this hangs might be related to the recent security update and the installed ACARD 6890M SATA RAID PCI card.

Thanks in advance

Giuliano
