Hi, Jay, Somehow I don't quite understand what your concern is, Dan's patch(see the link I pasted in the previous email for details.) would suffice for integrating kdump into kdb. I don't know why it was not accepted. I took his patch and ported to i386, then I tested the kdump command inside kdb, the result is okay, it works well in i386 and x86_64, the kernel I was using includes a couple of releases between 2.6.16 and 2.6.18. If you need the patches against the latest kdb release, I can submitted them to this maillist. In addition, I can port it into ia64 and send you the patch later. In the meanwhile, I don't think the patch summitted by Joe, (I mean the "kdump-kdb" patch) is really necessary.
