What is Kexec vmlinux->vmlinux? Do you mean that you first booted a vmlinux and then tried kexecing to same vmlinux? How did you boot into first vmlinux? Here Rachita is running into some strange issue where kexec on a x86_64, EM64T machine is failing. It seems to be hanging somewhere in purgatory. She is using 2.6.21-rc2 kernels and latest kexec-tools. But on the same machine RHEL5 kernel/kexec-tools combination works well. Note, RHEL5 kernel has got relocatable kernel support. Same software setup works on a different x86_64 machine, again EM64T. Very puzzling that what's wrong. She is still debugging this.
