Re: savecore changed?
Doug, Sorry, my bad, there was no dump availible. I still dont know how I would manage to get a dump if the kernel panics while busy booting (It does not know about dumpdev yet?)

You can compile DDB in and at least poke around. You do have a listing of the panic boot messages up to the point of the panic, yes? If not this would be a good time to learn about serial console. -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I will investigate serial console, but I do have physical access to the machine, and I do have a monitor on it, but it reboots so quickly, its just a flash of the panic, and the system reboots. :( I cannot make out a thing exept for 12 which I assume is part of ``Fatal trap 12'' - something. I do have DDB compiled in, but I will leave the ``poking around'' for the hackers. :P Jaco ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
savecore changed?
Hi all, I have a -CURRENT kernel that panics the moment it starts booting, and I have to use another kernel to boot properly (GENERIC). The problem is that I want to dump the core from the faulty kernel, and I see that savecore no longer support a -N flag like in 4.X? How do I save the core in -CURRENT from a different kernel? UPDATING does not mention any change in savecore. :( Any help appreciated.
