Between 2.6.16-1.2133 and 2.6.17-1.2139 the legal parameters for the netconsole kernel module changed. This breaks the /etc/init.d/netdump script. ======================== $ modinfo -p 2.6.16-1.2133_FC5/kernel/drivers/net/netconsole.ko netconsole: netconsole=[src-port]@[src-ip]/[dev],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr] netlog: netlog=[src-port]@[src-ip]/[dev],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr] $ modinfo -p 2.6.17-1.2139_FC5/kernel/drivers/net/netconsole.ko netconsole: netconsole=[src-port]@[src-ip]/[dev],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr] ======================== I haven't investigated further yet. I did file a bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197272 With 2.6.17-1.2139 I can only get a minute or two of use before my ThinkPad T42p locks hard. I was hoping to use netconsole to obtain debug info. I do note that I haven't gotten it to lockup yet when I booted to runlevel 3 with no X.
