Description
ACPI ERST supported by almost all modern motherboards/bioses. It allows to write kernel logs, including kernel panic dumps to special storage. Especially useful for catching and writing panic messages, when system is not able to write to generic partitions. Windows also supports writing to ERST during BSODs.
This is nice and simple way to store kernel panic logs.
Hope VirtualBox will support ERST soon.
According to article from Oracle blog

Oracle has been working to improve the usability of the Linux kernel pstore feature.
QEMU already has this feature:
