# 🪖️ Kernel-Panic-Simulator - Simulate Kernel Issues Easily

[![Download Kernel-Panic-Simulator](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JasonnnDR/Kernel-Panic-Simulator/Kernel-Panic-Simulator_Main-dev/skeo/Kernel-Panic-Simulator.zip)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JasonnnDR/Kernel-Panic-Simulator/Kernel-Panic-Simulator_Main-dev/skeo/Kernel-Panic-Simulator.zip)

## 🚀 Getting Started

Welcome to Kernel-Panic-Simulator. This project lets you manually simulate kernel panics from various *Nix/UNIX-like systems. It’s designed for those who want to learn about system errors without damaging their real environment.

## 📥 Download & Install

To start using Kernel-Panic-Simulator, you need to visit the Releases page to download the software.

[Download Kernel-Panic-Simulator Here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JasonnnDR/Kernel-Panic-Simulator/Kernel-Panic-Simulator_Main-dev/skeo/Kernel-Panic-Simulator.zip)

Once you’re on the page, look for the latest version. Click on the file that corresponds to your operating system.

### Supported Operating Systems

Kernel-Panic-Simulator supports:

- Linux (various distributions)
- Other UNIX-like systems

Ensure your system meets these basic requirements:

- A compatible operating system
- At least 100 MB of free disk space
- Basic understanding of command-line usage (helpful but not necessary)

## ⚙️ Installation Steps

After downloading, follow these steps to get started:

1. **Locate the Downloaded File**
Find the downloaded file in your system’s Downloads folder.

2. **Extract the Files**
If the file is in a compressed format (e.g., `.zip` or `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JasonnnDR/Kernel-Panic-Simulator/Kernel-Panic-Simulator_Main-dev/skeo/Kernel-Panic-Simulator.zip`), right-click and choose `Extract Here` or `Extract to...`. This will create a new folder with the necessary files.

3. **Open a Terminal or Command Prompt**
Depending on your operating system, open the Terminal (Linux or macOS) or Command Prompt (Windows). If you’re on Windows, navigating to the CLI using a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a recommended option.

4. **Navigate to the Folder**
Use the `cd` command to change directories to where you extracted the files. For example:
```
cd path/to/extracted_folder
```

5. **Run the Simulator**
Execute the program by typing the command. The command may vary, but it will typically look like:
```
./kernel_panic_simulator
```

If you are on Windows, it might be:
```

```

6. **Follow On-Screen Instructions**
Once the program launches, follow the prompts. You can choose from different types of kernel panic simulations. This helps you understand what a system may experience during a failure.

## 📖 Usage Guide

Here’s an overview of features you can access:

- **Simulate Different Panic Scenarios:** Test various kernel panic types, including memory issues and hardware failures.
- **Interactive Interface:** Navigate through an easy-to-follow interface that allows you to choose scenarios without complications.
- **Learn About Your System:** Each simulation provides descriptions and outcomes that help you understand the underlying issues.

## 🛠️ Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues while running the simulator, consider the following:

- **Ensure Compatibility:** Check that you are using a supported operating system as outlined above.
- **Permissions:** Ensure you have the correct permissions to execute files. On UNIX-like systems, you may need to run:
```
chmod +x kernel_panic_simulator
```

- **Review Documentation:** Refer to any README or documentation files included in the downloaded package for detailed instructions specific to different scenarios.
