I can do successful kexec, as long as I >load bzImage (and not vmlinux). (Both kernels 2.6.22 and >2.6.23-rc2-git). Problem is, I can only load bzImage using -l, attempt >to load bzImage using -p results in > >"Could not find a free area of memory of 9000 bytes" >locate_hole failed > >. Any ideas? The Kexec-tools 1.101 can not deal with bzImage with "-p" properly. So vmlinux must be used with "-p". And the tricks previous mentioned must be used for normal kexec -p too. The example command line is as follow: kexec -p --args-linux vmlinux --append="root=/dev/<xxx> ..."
