I am writting a small LCD application that will run as a daemon (thanks for the tip on runing as a daemon) and I wanted to know if is possible to somehow capture when you get a Kernel Panic... Has anyone done that?

Thanks

As far as I know, you can't catch this.

The only way I can image is a kernel module that is a substitute for the kernel debugger.

If you simply want to show "PANIC" on the LCD, that's the way to go. However that is beyond the scope of FPC, which is a pure userland system on Unix.
