One thought on - UC One-time Reboot Into Alternate Kernel?

  • Hi,

    You should keep in mind that this may not save you from pressing the reset button if the system hangs at boot (as far as I understand). However, you are right that this is a mechanism to boot a fallback kernel if booting fails.

    best regards
