What I am saying it that If the first kernel is booted using mem= option and crashkernel= option the memory for second kernel has to be withing the crashkernel size. As per /proc/iomem System RAM the information is correct, but the /proc/meminfo is showing total memory much more than the first kernel had in first place. > What about if you don't specify "crashkernel=...?" > In that case the second kernel will not boot as kexec tools will complain that memory not reserved. >> 1.2 Live crash dump fails with error >> -------------------------------------- >> $crash vmlinux >> >> crash 7.1.5++ >> Copyright (C) 2002-2016 Red Hat, Inc. >> Copyright (C) 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010 IBM Corporation >> Copyright (C) 1999-2006 Hewlett-Packard Co >> Copyright (C) 2005, 2006, 2011, 2012 Fujitsu Limited >> Copyright (C) 2006, 2007 VA Linux Systems Japan K.K. >> Copyright (C) 2005, 2011 NEC Corporation >> Copyright (C) 1999, 2002, 2007 Silicon Graphics, Inc. >> Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 Mission Critical Linux, Inc. >> This program is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, >> and you are welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under >> certain conditions.
