Public bug reported: On ppc64el, there's no vmlinu/z/, only vmlinu/x/.
Thus, kdump-config load fails as follows: # kdump-config load Cannot open `/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-27-generic': No such file or directory * failed to load kdump kernel This small patch (attached) fixes the issue. It defaults KDUMP_KERNEL to vmlinux if vmlinuz is not found. # cd /usr/sbin && patch -p1 < ~/kdump-config-vmlinux.patch patching file kdump-config # kdump-config load [...] * loaded kdump kernel ** Affects: makedumpfile (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "kdump-config-vmlinux.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1324544/+attachment/4122271/+files/kdump-config-vmlinux.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1324544 Title: kdump-config load fails with vmlinux kernel (vs. vmlinuz) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/1324544/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
