@tim ok, I found how to test, using the kernel source package :
$ cd ./linux-3.0.0/debian/linux-image-3.0.0-17-server/boot $ makedumpfile -g vmcoreinfo-3.0.0-17-server -x ../build/build-server/vmlinux The kernel version is not supported. The created dumpfile may be incomplete. The vmcoreinfo is saved to ./boot/vmcoreinfo-3.0.0-17-server. makedumpfile Completed. This is caused by the fact that the latest version defined in makedumpfile.h is : #define LATEST_VERSION KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 36)/* linux-2.6.36 */ I'll check with upstream what can be done about that -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988512 Title: Missing /boot/vmcoreinfo-{version} file is breaking kdump To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/988512/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
