FYI, the default actually comes from src:kexec-tools: cat debian/kexec-tools.grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT crashkernel=384M-:128M" which, in and of itself, seems odd as if you only install kexec-tools, you've now reserved some system memory for kdump. And if you remove/purge kexec-tools, crashkernel= seems to stick around :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567539 Title: Failure to dump with trusty+3.16 on ppc64el To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/1567539/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
