Hello,
I have crashreporterd disabled on my machine, because I regularly run
(test) programs which trigger hardware exceptions but catch them and
deal with them via Unix signals (and crashreporterd nevertheless
insists on dumping crash logs in such situations because it can't
know those exceptions are caught at the BSD level, which is pretty
annoying even if it's set not to display dialog boxes).
However, I just got a kernel panic and after booting /Library/Logs/
panic.log was not updated. This is expected I assume, since
crashreporterd is also responsible for dumping panic logs.
I started crashreporterd after booting using
sudo /usr/libexec/StartupItemContext /System/Library/StartupItems/
CrashReporter/CrashReporter start
but that still did not create a panic log. Is there a way to still
recover the panic log from nvram (it's on a G5 running 10.5.10)?
Jonas
