Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2011 16:39:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318376345.2050.20.camel@boudreau> (raw)

Kexec,

I have been experiencing the crash below on Ubuntu 10.04 running
2.6.32-34-server and 2.6.38-8-server as the crashkernel on X86_64.
The tools are:

kexec-tools	1:2.0.2-1ubuntu3
makedumpfile	1.3.7-2
kdump-tools	1.3.7-2

I would be interested to know if this is a known problem and if so
whether or not there is a patch in the pipeline to correct the problem.

I will be happy to provide any other details that are required including
debug builds if necessary.
