A kernel panic is the Unix equivalent of Microsoft's Blue Screen of Death. It is a routine called when the kernel detects irrecoverable errors in runtime correctness; in other words, when continuing the operation may risk escalating system instability, and a system reboot is easier than attempted recovery.
Blue screen errors have existed since the first beta release of Windows 1.0; if Windows found a newer DOS version than it expected, the boot screen would have the text "Incorrect DOS version" alongside other messages detailing what check failed to pass appended into it before starting normally. [4]
In older and simpler operating systems, each process had a contiguous address-space, so a dump file was sometimes simply a file with the sequence of bytes, digits, [d] characters [d] or words. On other early machines a dump file contained discrete records, each containing a storage address and the associated contents.
Rarely an experienced user would reinstall Windows. In the case of the former, the boot loader will most likely inform the user the name of the missing file, allowing for the user to supply and/or reinstall the missing files to resolve the boot problem. In the case of the latter, however, the computer will not be able to boot, even into safe mode.
