If not than problem could be something else.
Just checked it here: I am passing maxcpus=1 to the kdump kernel. My full kexec commandline is this: /sbin/kexec --console-serial -p '--command-line=ro root=/dev/vg0/rawhide rhgb console=ttyS0,115200 ignore_loglevel irqpoll maxcpus=1 reset_devices earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200' --initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.28-rc2kdump.img /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-rc2 Additional info: I don't get the "I'm in purgatory" message on serial console, when the system hangs. I do get the message if I trigger the crash dump after unloading the kvm-intel module, so the serial console is working. -- Eduardo _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
