I finally was able to boot up the crash dump kernel.
Unfortunately the 'cp vmcore /var/tmp' crashed due to
out of memory. :(
The memory on the regular kernel showed:
[root@holism tmp]# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 805312 443520 361792 0 36288 295936
-/+ buffers/cache: 111296 694016
Swap: 6143968 0 6143968
and the memory on the crash dump kernel showed:
[root@holism tmp]# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 47776 45952 1824 0 1056 11856
-/+ buffers/cache: 33040 14736
Swap: 6143968 54720 6089248
It came down from 805312 k to 47776 k with only 1824 free.
How much memory do i need to do a 'cp /proc/vmcore /var/tmp'?
Thanks,
