Hi,

I'm trying to debug a system hang I've been seeing on some of
our machines.  I'm running 2.4.20-19.8.XFS1.3.0smp which has
kdb 4.3 built into it and "cat /proc/sys/kernel/kdb" returns "1",
but when I hit the Pause/Break key it resets the machine rather
than going into kdb.  I'm  hitting the Pause/Break key at the
login prompt in virtual terminal 1 (X is not running).  Any
pointers would be appreciated.
