Subject: how to debug and capture Oops mesage?

Hello,
I have two machines with RedHat linux 9
with serially connected to each other. While doing
some kernel programming i am getting frequently Oops
messages. I am learning network stack. How can i
capture those oops message and which utility can help
me to solve oops problem. I heard about lkcd which is
on lkcd.sourceforge.net. Can it be suitable utility to
check kernel crash dump. I have yet not used it and
require advice from kernel developers.
Please kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
cranium

everything is within the universe, it is impossible to reach Harvard and
therefore there can be no life there.
