Looking at those sites, it appears that the development at "http://lists.insecure.org/lists/linux-kernel/2003/Feb/0987.html." which I had pointed is based on the SGI's dump scheme. Same for the one you pointed to. The other scheme I poinited to (from Mission Critical Linux/MCLX) seems to have some strong points too. Any pointers to discussions about why the LKCD work seems to more active than the MCLX one? Best regards, -Arun. On Tuesday 08 April 2003 07:14 pm, Matt D.
