I'm sending you a link to the bzImage in question http://georgi.unixsol.org/cruft/tmp/bzImage-4.1.6-clouder1 ( I assume you meant the bzImage, if you need I can provide the vmlinux as well). Unfortunately, I couldn't figure how to obtain the log of kdump in textual format (and didn't want to send pictures). Here are the 3 relevant lines (from memory): Saving vmcore-dmesg.txt Missing the struct log size export Error saving vmcore-dmesg.txt. Yet, when I load the crashdump inside the 'crash' utility and invoke the 'log' command the dmesg log is there. Whereas the vmcore-dmesg-incomplete.txt is empty. > >> >> [Please CC me as I'm not subscribed to the mailing list.] >> >> Regards, >> Nikolay >> >> _______________________________________________ >> kexec mailing list >> kexec at lists.infradead.org >> http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
