Let’s talk today about kernel crashes, or even better, how can we collect information if a kernel panic happens on Arch Linux and on SteamOS, the Linux distribution used on the Steam Deck.

This is great! I have managed to get a few kernel panics on my system related to Steam and NTFS drives.
I have a shared HDD formated to NTFS that I have imported to Steam as a library. It sometimes that HDD is not mounted at boot due to some error, which have resulted in me installing the same game on my main drive. When I later tried mount my old HDD and import the Steam library my computer just froze. Every time I opened Steam after that the kernel panicked. I didn’t know it was a kernel panic at the time. I ended up dismounting the NTFS drive and uninstalling the duplicate games.
I wonder if I can dig up the old kernel panic logs with this.
