Using Remote Kernel Core Dumps
A kernel panic is a type of error that occurs when the core (kernel) of an operating
system receives an instruction in an unexpected format or when it fails to handle
properly. A kernel panic can also follow when the operating system can’t recover from
a different type of error. A kernel panic can be caused by damaged or incompatible
software or, more rarely, damaged or incompatible hardware.
