Any interest in core dump's from Nokia (Ipsolin?)

[Brad Grandorff]

Just curious how the relationship is with Nokia's 
sping off of FreeBSD for their security platform?

I have a few core dumps that have taken place on a 
box, and I want to learn more about them.
Considering, though, that they have "modified" the 
OS somewhat, I want to ensure if there would
be anyone interested in looking at 
them?

I'm more interested from an educational standpoint. 
We have since replaced the box, but I would like to learn more 
about
the process of reading core dumps and doing 
additional troubleshooting.


I'm extremely technical, so talking pretty much at 
any level is NO problem. Just haven't worked specifically with core 
dumps.

Anyone have any thoughts or 
suggestions?

The FreeBSD used on the Nokia product is different enough from the stock
FreeBSD code that a dump would be essentially useless.  A dump requires
that at least have access to the symbols, and even then given that
they've made significant kernel changes (especially to the routing
code), it may not even give you much of a hint as to what went on.
