Re: Amiga, serial and SYSRQ

[Michael Schmitz <schmitzmic@gmail.com>]

Paolo,

please try adding 'initcall_debug' to the kernel command line.

On a serial console, SysRq is BREAK:

On the serial console (PC style standard serial ports only)
         You send a ``BREAK``, then within 5 seconds a command key. Sending
         ``BREAK`` twice is interpreted as a normal BREAK.

(see Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst)

Cheers,

	Michael
