In addition to traditional SAK (which I have not found yet) there is 
now also a "magic sysrq key" option in the kernel config.  I wish
I had had it while working on my first set of drivers:') -- it lets
you sync disks, remount filesystems readonly, reboot, dump stack 
traces, etc.  See the Documentation directory in a newer devel kernel 
for a description.
