Did you capture the Oops via a serial cabel? I had one attached too, but I never could capture an output... either the system rebooted or died without a message on the serial console...
Anything special you did to capture the oops?
Yes, just a simple serial cable, no handshaking lines. Just added "console=ttyS0,57600n8 3" to the command line to stop enable the console and stop X I set the bitrate to 57600 to make things a bit faster. Using CuteCom to capture the output. Not had any instant reboots yet on the Intel based machine I am now using to test. On my dual Opteron machine it does reboot, I doubt there is enough time to squirt out an oops.
