grub is not on all systems; the one I'm working with is not using grub. My bootloader's config is stored in flash.

yeah, still.. can it mount the filesystem and read the kernel config file? if yes, then there you go. Because its the boot loader which passes the kernel parameters to the kernel while loading the kernel.

if you have a sysctl.d structure without sysctl.conf, put kernel.panic = 3 inside a new file within that folder, e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/99-panic.conf (# echo kernel.panic = 3 > /etc/sysctl.d/99-panic.conf)
