kernel panic analysis... is there a place I can upload?

To my fellow MAC users,

I am getting some kernel panics on a MAC G5 PowerPC tower that has been checked and re-checked, OS uninstalled and re-installed, hardware diagnostics passed, permissions checked and repaired... with no luck. Is there somewhere within this community or within the Apple Support site to send your log file to to analyze what is going on?


Thanks in advance!

The original crash was happening while being executed in the context of the windowserver process and it caused a data access violoation. It tried to access Data access DAR=0x0000000000000018 which of course has to fail. You are a bit unlucky as the back trace terminated prematurely. However it printed the following backtrace addresses:

0x0001C2C0 0x00025860 0x00025844 0x000B45CC 0x20494452


The next steps are to:

- figure out to which modules these addresses maps and

- which functions.


Generally the full panic dump shows the module addresses. To figure out to which symbols the addresses maps you need to download the kernel debug kit as explained in http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#technotes/tn2063/_index.html and determine the function names. If you need further help from there, you would need to provide the stacktrace with the symbols.

kernel panic analysis... is there a place I can upload?
