A Kernel Panic is a critical error in the operating system’s kernel that causes the system to halt because it can no longer safely continue running. This occurs when the kernel encounters an issue from which it cannot recover, such as severe hardware failures, memory corruption, or bugs in the kernel code. During a kernel panic, the system typically displays an error message with debugging information and then either freezes or automatically restarts. Kernel panics are similar to the “Blue Screen of Death” in Windows and are a sign of a serious problem that needs to be diagnosed and resolved to prevent future occurrences.
