How can I get the kernel to make crash dumps if it fails before the 'dumpon'
command is issued ? There used to be a line in the kernel configuration file
beginning with the keyword 'config' which had options 'dumps on' or 'crash
on' but this has gone.

I think we might be talking at cross-purposes here. What does the kernel do
if it panics before the /etc/rc script is run ? (i.e. before the dumpon
command is issued ). I can't believe that it reads /etc/rc.conf and locates
the dump_dev entry to determine where it should put the crash dump. In
