Stopping the server/packager causes kernel panic

See original GitHub issue

Description

I connected my Android device to my Macbook Pro with USB
I ran yarn run android in a terminal
I played around with my app and everything worked fine
When I hit ctrl+c in the terminal running the server/packager my Macbook Pro gets a kernel panic and reboots

Expected Behavior

I expected the server/packager to simply stop running and allow me to do other things with the terminal (and not have my laptop get a fatal error, would be nice).

Observed Behavior

Within a second a kernel panic happens.

Environment

npm ls react-native-scripts: 1.6.0
npm ls react-native: 0.49.5
npm ls expo: 22.0.0
node -v: 8.7.0
npm -v: 5.5.1
yarn --version: 1.2.1
watchman version: command not found (I’m not using it)

Also specify:

Operating system: MacOS 10.12.6
Phone/emulator/simulator & version: Huawei Honor 8 Lite, Android 7.0

Reproducible Demo

It’s not really possible with this issue.

Well, you’re not alone. I have also experienced this, just now most recently when cancelling the exp start command. I have also experienced it with the adb, so if Expo uses that it may have something to do with it.

I am running a hackintosh so I may not have the most stable environment, but if it happens to others then it’s not the hackintosh’s fault.

@brentvatne Sorry, I had the hackintosh, not the original issue author! The fact that this happens for both of us would suggest that it is not a hackintosh problem.

Anyway, I suspect the issue is with the Android adb, not with Expo itself.
