Unfortunately it's not clear what is shifted - the printout below looks just fine. Also, from your first mail I understood that the shift there was by an amount not divisible by 4 - does that amount vary? > Program Headers: > Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz > MemSiz Flg Align > LOAD 0x200000 0xffffffff81000000 0x0000000001000000 0xa3b000 > 0xa3b000 R E 0x200000 > LOAD 0xe00000 0xffffffff81c00000 0x0000000001c00000 0x05b0e8 > 0x05b0e8 RW 0x200000 > LOAD 0x1000000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000001c5c000 0x012c40 > 0x012c40 RW 0x200000 > LOAD 0x106f000 0xffffffff81c6f000 0x0000000001c6f000 0x087000 > 0x702000 RWE 0x200000 > NOTE 0x82d5bc 0xffffffff8162d5bc 0x000000000162d5bc 0x00017c > 0x00017c 0x4 > > > That makes me wonder wether kexec-tools is the culprit. Possibly, though generally any corruption to the compressed image should make decompression fail I would think. Jan
