Description
When Haiku crashes, it can be confronting to a first-time user who may not know what is going on. Thus, it may be good to put a message like the following whenever Haiku crashes and KDL appears: "Haiku experienced a problem and crashed. We would really appreciate it if you took a photo of the information below this message and sent it to our developers - this will help them fix the crash. You can send your photo as well as add additional information by filing a bug report at the official Haiku bug tracker at https://dev.haiku-os.org (Note you need an account to file bug reports) Thanks!
After you’re done, please manually reboot the system by holding the power button until the device shuts down, and then pressing the power button to turn the device on again."
Another example can be found here: https://fakeupdate.net/apple/panic.html
Thanks in advance!
Please do not add tickets to milestones without discussing it with the development team first.
