Can't you make it a low level driver for LKCD? Diskdump can exist with netdump without LKCD. Actually in our system, diskdump and netdump both exist and can be selected by module loading. When both modules are loaded, diskdump runs first and if it detects I/O error when writing dump, it falls backs to netdump. --- Nobuhiro Tachino FUJITSU LIMITED
